Yep, I'd hope so. Do you know if you get better performance with that setup vs a single instance for those six sites? (Not that it's relevant if you're getting acceptable performance with your current config). > There is overhead per instance, memory an CPU cycles too.

Lots of performance experimentation needed to fine tune things.
