HI there
there is little performance issues if we have all modules at same installation. basically I have a site social, and i like to offer many facilities to users, but if i install many modules on same installation it impacts the performance, so i decided to user multisite,
for e.g.,
songs : songs.example.com
videos : videos.example.com
groups: groups.example.com
blogs: blogs.example.com
something like that.
now, I have to let the users to manage the other site contents with in the same site (main site), I mean, in users profile page(main site) needs to display his songs & videos and also it should have all the facility [create/edit/comment] without going to the subdmains,
Is it possible? or is there any solution for this?
Thanks in advance.

Well, unfortunately, your
Well, unfortunately, your goals conflict.
Let each site use a separate selection of modules… For that you use standard Drupal multisite.
Let editors edit content for all sites from one main site… For that you can use Domain Access.
That being said, you may be able to find a way to pull off the latter from a standard Drupal multisite installation by using shared tables, but I generally don't recommend trying to mess with shared tables.

"Let editors edit content
"Let editors edit content for all sites from one main site… "
this is the main problem, because I can't install all modules in one site due to performance issue.
We can use table sharing for users, roles etc, but not for nodes. Is there any solution?

What are the performance
What are the performance issues? If they're on contrib modules, you can file an issue and maybe get it fixed.
Domain Access
Just came across this, and as Garrett said you may want to look at http://drupal.org/project/domain.
Have you tried using Domain Access to share content across your sub-sites?
You can also look at Publish
You can also look at Publish and Subscribe.
Feeds and Views XML
Several years ago I built a Drupal Syndication server of content and media it relied on views and the views XML module.
I then wrote a custom client module that consumed the XML from the syndication server and then applied theme templates to render the content in views and blocks. On each "client" site I syndicated a global taxonomy from the syndication server (that all content was tagged with). Content owners would setup the client to request content from the syndication server that was tagged with one or more terms. So it totally possible, but you have to know how to integrate multiple modules, xml streams and program in PHP.
You may also consider the feeds module to consume the XML on your target sites.
What this means is your content authors would create content on the syndication server and then pull the content from the syndication server on to their individual DRupal installs.
