Just to be perfectly clear, how are you using this?  With a <Resource/> tag in 
your Tomcat configuration or are you creating the pool in your code?  Either 
way, include the necessary config or code which shows how you've defined the 
pool.

Again, how are you obtaining connections?  Is this through JNDI or through 
direct access by code in your application?  An example would be helpful.

How are you determining this?  Are you looking at it in a debugger?  Do you 
have a direct reference to the data source in your code?  If so, can you show 
an example?

As a note, when used in Tomcat (i.e. you've configured it with a <Resource/> 
tag) you should use JMX to monitor pool statistics.  Of course you can do this 
if you manually create the pool (like in a public static void main app), but 
you'll need to make sure JMX is correctly setup in your application.

We can certainly help you with this, but were going to need more info.  See my 
other comments.

Connection counts can legitimately go to zero under certain conditions.  Are 
you seeing any error or warning messages from the connection pool in your logs?
