I run 2 or 3 instances everyday, all are real time and auto trading.

1. turn off auto save like TJ have suggested; 
2. each start with a blank startup database, then switch to its own 
data base and stay there, never open the same database in different 
AB instances at same time;
3. I don't save the real time feed data, but its safe to save I think;
4. the last closed instance has the final saying, so never save 
anything except AFL code.

That's how I do it, have been trouble free.

bars)... which was a pain...

Indeed! I strongly suggest that number of bars should be cumstomized 
to each chart.

make the operation of a single installation using multiple instances 
practiclal.

bars)... which was a pain...
