At least tell us the version of Tomcat you're using; also, although
probably not relevant for this problem, include the JRE/JDK level and
the platform you're running on.

Are you referring to a session cookie or the JSESSIONID parameter (as
defined in the servlet spec), or is this a roll-your-own session
identifier?

There is a maxKeepAliveRequests attribute for a <Connector> element,
with a default setting of 100.  It's possible that's coming into play,
depending on the client you're using.  Read about here:

Unlikely, but if the webapp is being restarted, it should show up in
Tomcat's logs.  Have you looked at them?
