Hi Dani, I assume you are talking about 'drag-2-share' here? Even if the instance is still running, it won't matter if it has not received a request in the last 15 minutes. This is why your Instances graph on your dashboard is usually 0, occasionally 1 for 15 minutes, and then 0 again. You are not billed for instances that have not done anything in the last 15 minutes.
It would be reasonable for us to physically kill off such instances which happen to remain running (because they are on a fortuitous machine) past 15 minutes of idleness, but please note that if we did this, it would no impact on your bill.
