And then, you could create some nifty shell scripts that manage your per-instance environment settings, and then ... oh. For the record, I think Ben nailed it before -- big environments should be an app per server, or at least a Ruby per server if more than one app is on there, while smaller apps could either be a VPS each, or put the effort into RVM. Here at Westfield we're one app or Ruby per server. Like Michael said earlier, when you've got a multitude of environments it can get really hairy (we were stuck on ancient versions of Ruby for a while because of this), so the less moving parts the better.
