This is controlled by the maxThreads, maxSpareThreads, and
minSpareThreads attributes of <Connector> elements:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/ajp.html
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/http.html

However, this may not be the "instances" Tomcat is talking about during
termination.  What is the exact message you're seeing?  It may be
related to the number of requests or servlets still active, which may
indicate you have a webapp that gets stalled and won't finish
processing.  That could easily result in excessive memory consumption.
