Can I just follow up here what would be the next steps how would I go about 
capturing the root cause of these very short connection times to Oracle from 
Tomcat. 
Would it be along the lines of Wireshark or TCP dump to see what's occurring as 
I gather this won't be captured in tomcat logging via Catalina.out? Or can it 
be.

Most likely culprit is network or other issue causing validations to fail.  
With testWhileIdle on, idle connections in the pool will be tested when visited 
and closed if validation fails.
