Database interaction is by far the major issue. In my application, a page with no db interaction runs in something like 80ms, while a page with DB interaction takes something like 350-400ms. There's no silver bullet to tuning tomcat applications, and most of the advice you'll get here won't make any difference (use this connector, instead of that). So, my advice is:
1) Using JDK 1.5. It can be up to 25% faster than 1.4 2) Use the server JVM 3) Allocate sufficient memory 4) Start tuning your application. Look at query execution times, and the number of DB Interactions per page. Reduce the number of interactions by using Stored procedure, or views.
