The JVM allocates chunks of memory (see the -Xmx and -Xms flags by invoking
"java -X") and manages them... So, one user, 100 users, same thing...

On a 5 millions hits/day server (not running Tomcat, another servlet
container since Tomcat doesn't work for us), we have the VM starting with 1
Gigs of RAM ("java -server -Xmx 1024m -Xms 1024m ...") but we use half of it
(roughly) to cache data from the DB...

Those are _not_ processes, they are threads... Use a decent operating system
that supports them nicely (not Linux) and you'll see the difference (how
many times do I have to repeat this?)... Linux sucks :-(
