There is a fair chance that your application is not as thread-able as  
you think it is. Do you do any manual synchronisation, or do you make  
heavy use of libraries that do internal synchronisation?

Use JConsole to check that you are not exhausting the Tomcat connector  
thread pools.

Also, check that you are running with the server VM. http://www.java-monitor.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18

'lost'? I'm not sure what to think of that. :-)
