If you look at your list of services, you'll notice that each instance is a separate service. If you install the multiserver version on Windows, after you're done you'll have two instances, admin and cfusion (or coldfusion in CF8), and each will be listed as a separate service. If you make changes to the configuration for a single instance, you'll need to restart that instance. If you make a change that will affect multiple instances, you'll need to restart each instance. By default, the same jvm.config is used by all instances, so if you change that, you'll need to restart all instances. > Speaking of instances, how does this jvm.config file play > with our multi-home ColdFusion configuration?

By default, all instances use the same jvm.config file. You can configure them to use different config files, however. I posted the link for that a little earlier: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_18206 Even if they use the same jvm.config file, though, each instance will allocate its own memory. So, if you specify -Xmx 1024 in jvm.config, each instance will have a ceiling of 1024 MB.
