Yes, indeed and it makes sense, but: There are some dozens of libraries of this organisation (In fact it is one organisation, but they are more or less independent from eachother). Each one does not have soooo many items (books etc.)... The Problem is not so much, that i can find items from other libraries, but that i can see how often which item has been borrowed etc.
Independent branches have no effect on superlibrarians. If you want to see the effect on staff client side, you need to take away the superlibrarian permission and use granular permission settings, that way you will only see patrons of your own library in a patron search etc. I don't know if that has an effect on bibliographic searches.
So i hoped, having one instance with a lot of branches on a "nice" server, is more suitable than having... let's say 20 Koha Instances on one Server or 20 VMs ;)
I'd assume the server that is able to run 20 small libraries in one instance will also run 20 seperate instances for these libraries. And it allows individual settings, too. You could set up a master instance with the basic settings and populate the other instances from that to avoid manually setting up 20 instances.
