Thanks for following up, Chris!

Right now we are only using HTTP/1.1--do you think that could make a
difference?

I would say it is reproducible... as far as I can recall, I see this at
least the first time in a day that I access each application deployed on
tomcat, and some other times during the day after that. For example, say I
navigate to "applicationA" first thing in the morning--most likely, the
login page comes up but is obviously missing some images and the css file.
(I can see in my browser dev tools and the tomcat logs that those resources
were not obtained, with a 400 response.) If I login to the application
without refreshing the login page, the next page typically is also missing
images and/or css files. If I refresh before logging in, the login page
often gets most/all of the missing resources as does the next page. Some
days, it takes a few refreshes, or even a tomcat restart, to get all the
resources loaded--it typically gets worse as more time passes since the
last restart. With that, it makes me think that something is assumed to be
cached, but it is not?
