Well, for small applications, it's quite easy to restart the emulation. I've done some resistance tests with the PSP SDK demos and the emulator seems to be capable of running a satisfactory ammount of files in a single run (by Load->Run->Restart->Load->Run) without causing any crashes.
However, heavier applications do introduce a lot of issues to this functionality, since they extensively modify the compiler's state and regularly cause RuntimeExceptions, as stated by this recent issue: http://www.emunewz.net/forum/showthread.php?tid=5913
Of course, this can and will be improved, since it's needed for the emulator to mimic the PSP properly, and your tests should be a great way to test this feature extensively too.
