I am running Apache Tomcat 9.0.97 on Windows Server 2022 using Oracle’s JDK

Should this thread not be there when I am specifying the JVM to run in headless 
mode?
-Djava.awt.headless=true

This thread sits in a loop waiting for events which would take up CPU.  Maybe I 
am misunderstanding that JVM option?

That thread probably uses 0% CPU. IT's blocking, waiting for events and other things that need to happen "on the AWT thread". My guess is that those events will never actually occur, so the thread does take up some memory but should not otherwise impact performance.
