Do as Tim Funk suggested, issue a kill -3 to tomcat when CPU usage gets
high to get an idea of what java Threads are currently doing. Issue a
few kills to get a better view of what part of process takes times. If
it's not enough to find the location of issue, you might want to invest
time in using a profiler to locate problem (attach profiler to running
jvm when it starts to consume CPU).
