It should be. I haven't tested it explicitly but all the scalability
issues I have seen reported as a result of Tomcat's clustering have been
config errors / app issues rather than a limit of tribes.

Feedback of what, from where, to where?

Yes. You can write interceptors to gather statistics. There is already
at least one such interceptor in the clustering code base.

Yep - it hasn't been written yet. I added a TODO marker to make it obvious.

It is the basis for Tomcat's clustering implementation so it is
supported. There are also folks using it directly, reporting bugs ([1],
[2]) and getting those bugs fixed.
