Hi, It depends on your kernel: most show the behavior Senor Schroeder describes (so what you're seeing is expected, not a problem). Some more recent kernels/thread libs correctly show one process per JVM.
As to why 41 specifically: there's a handful JVM default threads (main, finalizer, system, etc.), a handful default tomcat threads (its own main, any watchdogs, etc.), and many request processors (depending on your server.xml connector configuration).
