Uh, no. New threads in Java typically don't spawn new processes on OS level=
.

I never had more than one tomcat process on any Linux machine. In fact,
if there was more than one because a previous Tomcat hadn't shut down
correctly, the new process wouldn't respond to HTTP requests.

55 Tomcat processes shouldn't be normal, at least not if that's what "ps
aux" responds.
