Close, but not quite.  It's to draw multiple independent plots on one 
page.  Plots sharing an x axis aren't independent.  If you're using 'set 
multiplot', but not 'set size' or 'set origin' (or the "set multiplot 
layout" option new in 4.1), you're probably misusing multiplot.

You weren't placing these side by side, were you?  At least you didn't 
mention anything of the sort until now.

It contains the information you told it to contain.  It's actually on 
purpose that the filename in an epslatex terminal output is given 
without the extension.  That allows to run epstopdf on the .eps part, so 
the LaTeX part will work under pdflatex without editing.
