If you are using a library, instead of a servlet and all the tomcat pain that goes with it, why not make a standalone daemon that uses the library to convert text, then use ns_proxy to manage and communicate with a pool of those java processes, and then you can simply use memoize or whatever to cache and return the content. You could thus completely eliminate the tomcat, apache.
