I think that this is part of the point. If it were an ideal world, we'd have one instance per server. And my development server, test server, and production server would all have an identical configuration. But the real world has cost constraints. We can't afford to have one instance per server, all with identical configs. So we do the best with what we have, and that often means running multiple instances on the same server.

Cheers,
