I am running a low yielding plant and am wondering if anyone has tried double potting (running two cuts in each 2 gal bucket) to increase yield. If you did, what were the results?

in a two gallon pot it'd be problems unless you are doing a sea of green type of growing, meaning single colas no taller than a half meter at best.
flowered right after cloning would be the only way tp do that without rootbound issues.
In my opinion you'd get better results from a single plant, scrogged or lst'd to maximize the area. 2 gallons isn't much at all.

it IS possible, but if you decide on that, make sure you get square pots to maximize space.
Honestly i'd recommend bigger pots though

I already try to put 6 (3 different variety) in the same soil pot, Believe it or not,it's work pretty well. however i can't tell if it could be great for yield, because the 6 clones was crappy and i decide to put them in same pot instead of garbage.

especially in soil the roots trend to stay around the pot and let the middle with low roots, with 6 roots system to fit in one pot, the roots have literally no choice to populate the middle.

To realize it like a pro, i think the answer is the genetic! some could work as hell, and other not at all.

As a general rule you only want one plant per container.

What happens if one gets sick? or hermies? or is male? etc, etc.
