I use a very simple method that has never failed me: Install one at a  
time and test if it works well or does annoy the system.

Sometimes I have run into problems (zipper noise) when two particular  
VST plug-ins are daisy-chained in a certain order. The problem went  
away when I changed the order (going A-->B instead of B-->A).

I have also run into problems with crashing applications (Bidule,  
Mobius) when applying real-time MIDI CC control, by expression  
pedals, over VST's parameters. The solution was to not use the  
expression pedals for those parameters in those plug-ins.

It's all trial and error in VST land. But you can do well there if  
you try different things and make some errors on the way.
