John, I am curious about your load-balanced Tomcat configuration. Are you running load balanced Tomcats outside of the JBoss memory space? I have used load balanced Tomcats before, however, I thought to do that you had to run Tomcats outside of JBoss memory space. Can you give some information on your configuration in these regards?
sub note: I have been working with Jboss 2.4.x w/ Tomcat 3.2.3, Resin 2.0.5, and Jetty 3.x JSP/Servlet containers running in same VM as JBoss, using Apache as HTTP server and/or using TUX AC3 HTTP server (both for static pages only) on RedHat 7.x machines w/ Sun JDK 1.3.1_01, Sun JDK 1.3.1_02, and Sun JDK 1.3.1_03 as well as IBM's 1.3.1-01 JDK with no problems. My RedHat systems use different stock kernels from RedHat, as well as custom kernels I compile myself, usually 2.4.18 to 2.4.19-preX kernels. Also, I have run JBoss 2.4.3 w/ Tomcat 3.2.3 on Solaris 7 and 8 w/ Sun JDK 1.3.1_01, Windows NT4 and 2K w/ Sun JDK 1.3.1_01, and on FreeBSD 4.5 w/ native JDK 1.3.1 and Linux Sun JDK 1.3.1_01 with no problems. On some systems I have also experimented with using Jikes compiler with good results. I have tried JRockit 1.3.1 on a couple of RedHat systems and my findings so far is that is that it is very fast, but extremely unstable. I am still performing load-testing on the Sun versus IBM JDK, however, so far I prefer the IBM JDK 1.3.1-01 on systems where supported, i.e.. Linux.

We have been running since March 1st with zero issues or unplanned downtime. The only change we've made that was critical is the addition of the statement "ulimit -s 2048" in run.sh before we start the jvm, some JVM problem documented elsewhere. Equipment: Dell 1550(2), dual 1.26 processors, and 512M with load balanced tomcat front ended by Apache.
