I tried the 'everything on one biner' method and found that the slight side loading on the friction hitch caused it to slightly bind and not release as well. The hitch cord has to relax and open up to release completely, all that other stuff crammed around it can interfere.
Here's my 4-1 VT. Very efficient as long as the cord isn't too long. You want the cord as short as possible without actually binding. If the cord is too long then either shorten it or add an extra braid to make a 4-2 VT. I use New England Sta-Set 3/8" cord (double braid polyester).
