How do you track major collections? Even better, how do you log your GC
behavior with details? Right now I just log total time spent on collections,
but I don't really know on which collections.Regard application performance
with the ConcMarkSweepGC, I think I didn't experience any impact for now.
Do you have your GC logs? Are you still seeing major collections?
Where is the time spent?
Hard to say without some of that info.
The goal of the low pause collector is to finish collecting before the
tenured space is filled - if it doesn't, a standard major collection occurs.

Sorry for OFF-topic:
Create dummy "Hello, World!" JSP, use Tomcat, execute load-stress

allocate necessary thread pools in Tomcat (if you have to)...

One more point and I'll stop - I've hit my email quota for the day ;)
While its a pain to have to juggle GC params and tune - when you require
a heap thats more than a gig or two, I personally believe its essential
to do so for good performance. The (default settings / ergonomics with
throughput)
Thats a good point too - if you can reduce your need for such a large
heap, by all means, do so.
However, considering you already need at least 10GB or you get OOM, you
have a long way to go with that approach. Good luck :)
How many docs do you have ? I'm guessing its mostly FieldCache type
stuff

It won't really - it will just keep the JVM from wasting time resizing
the heap on you. Since you know you need so much RAM anyway, no reason

Opposite viewpoint:
1sec GC happening once an hour is MUCH BETTER than 30ms GC once-per-second.
To lower frequency of GC: -Xms4096m -Xmx4096m (make it equal!)

-server option of JVM is 'native CPU code', I remember WebLogic
