Denise, Java makes tracking your own memory usage quite difficult, which is good in some ways, not so good in others. What you could try is temorarily removing your web app. Then create a dummy servlet which gets loaded when Tomcat loads. This servlet won't do anything, it will just hang around periodically calling Runtime.getRuntime().gc() followed by Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory(), logging the result (use a java.util.Timer for this). Then re-enable your web app and see how the total is affected. It's somewhat crude, and will require a several runs to get a half-decent average, but it's better than nothing.
