No, not really (http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.postfix.user/248500) 
...No, 

I'm using MULTI_INSTANCE simply because it seems cleaner to me than a single 
monolithic setup, and that that's the recommended basis for the choice.  From

        http://www.postfix.org/MULTI_INSTANCE_README.html

        "Since there is no single right way to configure your system, we 
recommend that you choose what makes you most comfortable. If different Postfix 
services don't involve incompatible main.cf or master.cf settings, and if they 
can be combined together without complex tricks, then a single monolithic 
configuration may be the simplest approach.

        The purpose of multi-instance support in Postfix is not to force you to 
create multiple Postfix instances, but rather to give you a choice. Multiple 
instances give you the freedom to tune each Postfix instance to a single task 
that it does well and to combine instances into complete systems."

Eventually I'll add other features as I migrate from the original 3 servers.  
Piecewise, instance-by-instance made sense to me.   So I've broken it down into 
pieces, and am working one getting them working one at a time.
