That's not it then.  (I only have two instances of Emacs open at any
time and I mostly keep them running until I get a kernel update and
restart my system -- which happens about once a week. In the last
few years, I doubt I've opened Emacs more than a dozen times in any
24 hour period -- I haven't done that since I stopped working mostly
from the command line and started working mostly from within Emacs.
(But I can imagine someone working from the command line potentially
opening Emacs more than 256 times a day.))
