Yes. With Seaside you have to, with pure Zinc you can but it is not the default.

If you reload http://zn.stfx.eu/status a couple of times, you will see the port changing (which means another member of the cluster is handling the request). If you reload http://zn.stfx.eu/session you will stay on the same cluster member (notice the session ID ending with a Route ID).

Right now, I do it statically: I just run 4 of them all the time.

One vm+image uses maybe 100 Mb, with current servers you get multiple GBs of RAM, that you can use for running multiple images, a db, memcached instances or other stuff.
