We do the same thing.

This seems like the thread in which to ask whether anyone has found a
straightforward way to switch Slime versions without restarting Emacs.
Right now I usually have (under screen) one instance of Emacs for
personal projects (for which I try to use the latest Slime and Swank)
and one for work (where they do not get updated so frequently), and
sometimes I need to start a third instance if I am doing work on an
older maintenance branch of the software. It seems like there should
be a way to switch between Slime versions within the same running
Emacs, but I have yet to figure it out.
