The difference in the licensing. On a server, you are limited to five simultaneous users unless you buy more licenses.
If you actually generate the report on a workstation, then the solution is easy. You only need to do one CREATEOBJECT("CrystalRuntime.Application"). All generated reports can use the same instance of the Application object.
