For what it is worth, we run vanilla RedHat 8.0 servers and have to bump up the number handles available to Tomcat using ulimit, (otherwise it is limited to ~1024). We have a complex application that does a lot of proxied access work. Despite that, we have only run out of file descriptors once in several years during what we think was a DOS attack. Remember, each socket gets a file descriptor as well.
It seems unlikely that the FDs are being consumed by Tomcat if your log files look normal. Does the number of file handles climb steadily over time or rapidly balloon beyond norms on startup? What build of Linux is on the box in question?

Those are shared fd's.
Nope, those are real FDs
(Otherwise you would have hit the limit much earlier
as it is typically something betweenn 1024 and 4096).
Nope, on this server, it is 209713. You want some?
