Hello If an application runs in Tomcat, there is little justification for JBoss. Tomcat has management tools, clustering, etc. If an application makes use of JBoss (JEE) features then of course it makes sense to use JBoss over Tomcat+lots of libraries.
I would struggle, but not refuse, to believe a JEE-free webapp runs faster in JBoss than Tomcat given JBoss uses Tomcat for a servlet engine and usually an older version than you may choose to download and install. One has to be careful they have a good reason for using a JEE server over Tomcat. There's a good reason that Tomcat may be the worlds most deployed servlet engine: it is good. I've not seen any BMC app embrace JEE beyond ITBM that I believe they purchased. That's probably a good thing.
