My question is should you just move up once the BR allows it? Or (assuming you're using Poker Tracker or recording your results) should you stay at a level to see how you're playing there, improve your leaks, and then move up?
Honestly, you should be beating your current level before you move up. Get a decent sample set in PT, which is at least 10k hands, The general consensus is to make sure your ptbb/100 is over 5 before you move up, over 4 at 100nl and up.

Start Multi-tabling when you're comfortable with it. If you're using the 20 max buyins per level rule (considered low, but adequate at micros), wait till you have a significant amount more than that before you start multi-tabling.
I started with one table, quickly grew accustomed to 2, played SNGs with 4 regularly, and just moved up a little at a time from there. Do what you can handle, and get a decent sample set 1-tabling to make sure you're not losing a lot of earn by adding tables.
