1a) It depends on your code. TOmcat can handle it but only if your code can also scale. 1b) Free: Jmeter, seige, apache ab - it depends on the type of test 2) See the faq or wiki http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/faq/performance.html http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-tomcat/UsefulLinks 3) Maybe.

it's going to be hard to summarize tuning in a paragraph or even a few pages. If there aren't any existing weblogs to tell you the amount of traffic it will get, you're only good solution is to implement logging and monitoring. then everyday look at how the site is performing, graph the results
