Almost forgot, as for your question about multiple jvms with multiple tomcat instances: we tried to scale tomcat instances on the same machine and it made no difference.

Hello, I was hoping somebody on the list might point me in the right direction... I am trying to scale up Tomcat based web application currently supporting ~100 users to 350 users. It seems that I have enough hardware: 2 load balanced servers x 4 CPUs each with 4 GB of RAM which is underutilized for most of the time even though application performance slows dramatically at peak times. I was advised to install multiple JVMs in order to improve Tomcat's performance. Another option I considered was to install 2 instances of Tomcat on each server to see whether it would handle increased load. Would anybody know what kind of performance improvement would multiple JVM/Tomcat installations provide? Are there any benchmarks available? Thank you for any help!
