>back up multiple hosts to the same repository

I haven't tried that recently (~3 years), does that work with concurrency or do you need to ensure one backup is running at a time? Back when I tried it I got the sense that it wasn't really meant to have many machines accessing the repo at once, and decided it was probably worth wasting space but having potentially more robust backups. Especially for my home use case where I only have a couple machines I'm backing up. But it'd be pretty cool if I could replace my main backup servers (using rsync --inplace and zfs snapshots) with restic and get deduplication.
