Hi, You can search the wiki (there's a "who's using Tomcat section) and archives of this list: there are sites that serve hundreds of concurrent requests for long periods of time, and millions of hits per day. Of course, your question itself is not that appropriate, because any answer is meaningless as it does not apply to your specific apps. Go run stress testers and figure out your max supported load for yourselves.
