Note: these are not "containers" (at least not in any spec-recognized
way). Tomcat is the container, the webapps are called "contexts" -- or
just webapps usually.

You can only do this by taking a series of thread-dumps (maybe 1 every
5 seconds for 15 or 20 seconds) and comparing them to each other. You
can probably find out which threads are doing a lot of work (because
they are running a lot of code over the time period) and which
applications are being used (because of the content of the stack traces).

Of course, you have to have a way to detect "high" CPU usage (100%
probably isn't good enough) and then trigger these thread dumps, etc.

You can have one of these, but not both. You *can* have a single
Tomcat /installation/ and multiple instances, of course (read the
RUNNING.txt file that comes with the Tomcat bundle under the
"Advanced" section).

Remember: memory is cheap. It's not that costly to run multiple Tomcat
instances. Tomcat requires roughly 12MiB on my system (64-bit with
compressed OOPs) with no web applications deployed into it.
