Tomcat 9.0.30 on Windows Server 2012 / Java 1.8

I've noticed on a freshly installed version of tomcat 9, upon startup there
are several connections to and from localhost on different ports

For example on my tomcat server there are 4 connections to and from
localhost (output from netstat)

  TCP    0.0.0.0:8080           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       3972
  TCP    127.0.0.1:55618        127.0.0.1:55619        ESTABLISHED     3972
  TCP    127.0.0.1:55619        127.0.0.1:55618        ESTABLISHED     3972
  TCP    127.0.0.1:55620        127.0.0.1:55621        ESTABLISHED     3972
  TCP    127.0.0.1:55621        127.0.0.1:55620        ESTABLISHED     3972
  TCP    [::]:8080              [::]:0                 LISTENING       3972

These can grow to a large number (several thousand) on a busy system. What
are these connections used for? What caused them? What thread are they
attributed to?

The Java NIO implementation on Windows uses TCP for intra-process
signalling. It opens a pair of self-connected sockets for every Selector.

While we're at it, under Linux, are the following for a similar reason ?

output of :  netstat -pan | grep 27514   (tomcat's JVM PID = 27514)
[...]
unix  2      [ ]         STREAM     CONNECTED     167427210 27514/java
unix  2      [ ]         STREAM     CONNECTED     167423436 27514/java
