Yse, but it is not necessary to implement that using separate Flash Player instances. Investigate some other architectures before going down that path.

Although people have mentioned that it shares the connection even across multiple pages in the same browser, you would end up getting collisions, which is silly. Have you had experience working around that problem? When you have a very large project consisting of many complex elements and states, and A LOT of resources, it makes sense to have one swf that has ownership of all resources loaded. Then each satellite swf can reference the resource repository and thus minimize loading times considerably.
