They won't share each other's memory, but they'd consume the memory of the server in which they're run, and that can be expensive. 25 instances is a lot. If each instance had 1GB RAM, you'd need a server with more than 25GB RAM, and the ability to support that amount of RAM (presumably a 64-bit OS). And in a 64-bit OS, you might need more than 1GB RAM per instance if the applications within those instances currently use that much memory in a 32-bit environment.
