I don't think any of the subsequent requests are intended functionality of Tomcat. Having a single request be serviced more than once does not make sense to me. I don't think it is a browser issue. I have replicated it with both Firefox and IE. I have replicated it with standard browser POSTs and Flash/Flex AMF remoting calls. My applications services many different requests and I have never seen this behavior before. This is the first time that during the servicing of a request my code blocks for such a substantial amount of time. I am using Lighttpd in front of Tomcat so I guess that answers the proxy/loadbalancer question. I will look into using tcpdump to make sure subsequent requests are not arriving through the network. Thanks for your assistence.
