Number of running applications

How many separate copies of Firefox can you run continuously without causing problems in the browsers' functionality? It's like cloning applications.

Processes vs Copies

Firefox, Chrome, and other browsers all have numerous processes running while the a single window of the browser is running. There's a process for the interface itself, processes for each tab or group of tabs, and some other stuff. This is normal in modern browsers.

If you're referring to copies - running multiple copies of Firefox Portable with AllowMultipleInstances set - you can run multiple as long as you have enough processing power and RAM.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
