Thanks very much for responding. I'm still stuggling with an ever
growing number of connections to the apache server and an ever growing
number of threads on my tomcat server. I'm fairly certain it is
not the application. I have all three timeouts set but no joy.

worker.ifa-prod.jweb1.cachesize=1
worker.ifa-prod.jweb1.cache_timeout=600
worker.ifa-prod.jweb1.socket_keepalive=1
worker.ifa-prod.jweb1.socket_timeout=300
worker.ifa-prod.jweb1.recycle_timeout=300
