FYI - opened ticket and PR for this issue: The tomcat init script has a few problems:
1. "Clean" shutdowns frequently timeout, and the scripts give up, leaving tomcat running 2. Normal tomcat shutdown actually involves spinning up a second jvm instance. Right now, we start this second instance with the same CATALINA_OPTS as traffic_router, which can be problematic on memory-constrained hosts. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TC-416 https://github.com/apache/incubator-trafficcontrol/pull/724 Thanks, _Jason
