What does your application do? What type of machine will you run on? Hardware and software specs.
Chances are that it'll scale way past what you need. I've set up 5-10 Citibank
card portfolios on a single tomcat server. To give you an idea, an average
portfolio represents 1/2-4 million customers of which 5-10% will typically use
the internet. Of course this was on a Sparc 4500 with several GB of memory and
6 microprocessors.
You should be able to serve 5 or so transactions per second on a decent intel
box running linux with plenty of memory. Ironically, my experience has
shown that Linux is faster than SUN with respect to the speed at which
Java executes.
Good luck.

I am trying to size new Java servlet/jsp/ejb application, and I am not sure how to determine how many users a "typical" a tomcat server can serve. I know this is a lot like asking "how high is up?". However, I was hoping someone could give me some rules of thumb, guidelines, or references to other resources.
Thanks!
