I experienced problems with such approach. Tomcat hang after a few
application re-deployments. And it seems it's a problem with Tomcat itself
as I saw this issue in different environments and with different
applications.

Main problem is that Tomcat doesn't release memory and hence it fails with
out-of-memory.
