iCloud Photos online: can I background sync dormant account when logged in on another account?

I'm thinking of buying a Mac mini with the sole purpose of storing my originals for iCloud photos online - but I'll need two user accounts on the machine, each working with independant iCloud accounts.


I know this will work for a single user, but if I have two users on the machine, both logged in, both with Photos app running, will they both sync continuously with iCloud, or will it only be the current active user that syncs?


I don't want to have to access the Mac mini in a regular basis just to switch users back and forth to ensure sync on both accounts.


Has anyone tried this?
