Agreed. I wasn't thinking of using this idea to run several different 
programs but, rather, to be able to re-run the same program quickly 
during development. For example to provide an immediate response to 
stupid typos.

I haven't tried, but I guess you could start a different version of 
ScriptRunner for each program you want to work with. That should keep 
the variables etc separate.

The startup delay is much less relevant for a finished program that is 
only started once per day, and my idea would have no role there.

I only came across Drip yesterday and it didn't seem to have any impact 
on startup delay. I seem to remember trying Nailgun a long time ago and 
it wouldn't work with whatever I was trying.
