are you using a single system as the client or multiple?  I've been
able to simulate upward of 100 threads in jmeter against tomcat for a
static file using my Gateway laptop which is a 1.4ghz PentiumM with
1Gb RAM. beyond 100 threads, the throughput tends to go down. I don't
remember the exact settings I used, but it was roughly

max 150
min 100
spare 50

since your webpage hits the database, I would suggest using JMeter to
test your database first and figure out the peak queries/second.  Even
if you have 4 tomcat servers on the front end, if your database can
only handle 400 queries/sec, it only going to kill the database. at
that point, tomcat is just tell the user internal server error.

I hope that helps
