I have found Lamda Probe to be quite useful and easy to use for monitoring the Tomcat container. http://www.lambdaprobe.org/
Simply deploy the probe war file to the container you want to monitor! You can detect requests that have large processing times by monitoring the connector status tab. This sometime comes in handy and is easier to use/read than a raw log file. http://www.lambdaprobe.org/d/screenshots/full/status.png Having said that, as Chris mentioned in his reply, you can also enable the required logging and have the information logged to relevant log files.
