As Jens noted, this is because you're sharing a cache file.  That's
one of those "don't do that" things.

It's often useful to have a separate instance that's used for run
scripts and debugging; configuring that not to use a persistent cache
is easy, and essential if you want to be able to run any number of
them at a time.
