There has been some improvement. The current message on my projects page states that I have 2 concurrent runtimes [previously it was 3].

I see from the comment that @NicoleSchwartz made on another post
that he state tool counts the virtual environments (created using state activate).
I don’t generally use state activate, although I did yesterday whilst familiarising myself with the state tool.
I don’t recall having more than one virtual environment at a time.
I do not currently have a need to use state activate, and therefore shall refrain from using it.
From looking at the state-svc log files, it appeared to me that the state tool is also monitoring usage of the my ActiveState Perl installation in conventional use, i.e. outside of any virtual environment. I am assuming that using Perl in this way is 1 runtime, regardless of how many scripts are running in parallel (which may occur from time to time, although I am typically only running one at a time).
