Well, the biggest difference between Tomcat 3 vs. Tomcat 5 is that the first
implements the Servlet 2.2/JSP 1.1 spec, and the second implements the
Servlet 2.4/JSP 2.0 spec :).

If you are using JSPs, especially ones with lots of Tags, then the code
generation in Tomcat 5 is much better than it is in Tomcat 3.  You are
likely to see improvements in your apps in this area.

Using straight servlets, I'd suspect that the performance difference between
TC 3.3.2 using the CoyoteConnector and TC 5 is much smaller.

And, of course, TC 5 has all of the fun little toys like the manager (which
has many more features than the TC 3 'admin') and admin webapps :).
