Can you clarify a bit on instance?  Are you saying one server for each 
customer?  If so I wouldn't go that route, simply because:

1) If your customers expand, you have to setup another server, and that gets 
old after awhile
2) You'll have to have different ports for each server, because the standard 
msyql port can only be used by one server
