They are not pooled.  They are created and destroyed (and passivated,
activated) as needed.  You can configure how and where they're stored by
adjusting the properties of the Manager element:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/manager.html

You can also write a custom one of your own, which could pool sessions
as you need.

In the Clustering How-To document:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/cluster-howto.html

It's limited by your hardware and things like the file descriptor
limits.  We routinely have hundreds of sessions, and I know of sites
that are an order of magnitude higher.
