We report tests of this proposition for the $d$-dimensional $Φ^4$ field theory in two different situations. First, we study quantum tunneling for $d = 1$ in the continuum limit, and second, we investigate first-order phase transitions for $d = 2$ in the infinite volume limit. Compared with standard multicanonical simulations we obtain improvement factors of several resp. of about one order of magnitude.12 pages LaTex, 1 PS figure appended.
