I had a question on individual memory footprint of a tomcat instance and increasing the number of instances:
Is this assumption correct that increasing the number of instances of tomcat on a machine and modifying the IIS worker properties to have more worker instances in the balanced_worker property will reduce individual tomcat memory foot print? For example, currently we have one machine has 3 tomcat instances running, the IIS worker properties, balanced_worker property points to the 3 tomcats and each worker lb_factor is 1. Current snapshot of memory usage is approx 175MB. If we add more tomcat instance and add them to the balanced_worker also, will the memory usage reduce for individual tomcat instance; now that the IIS will spread the new requests evenly among the tomcats?
