Thinking about this a bit more, though, I guess this conviction comes from experience with really large and complex web applications. When most of the code being run is not servlet engine code, then it stands to reason that the bulk of the resource consumption would not come from the servlet engine.
That's probably true, but there's still value in establishing a baseline. For example, if a certain level of performance takes 50% of the CPU just to run simple servlets, that means there's not much CPU left to run the actual application. Of course to scale an installation must figure out how to distribute an application among multiple servers, but that's all part of capacity planning.
