Try the following chain of reasoning:

1. Only one JVM instance can listen on any given port, such as 8080;

2. The ports for a given Tomcat are set in conf/server.xml;

3. All my Tomcat apps are available on one of the ports listed in my
only conf/server.xml;

4. Therefore all my Tomcat apps are running in one JVM instance.

This fails if you have more than one conf/server.xml - in which case,
your apps probably aren't running in the same JVM.  Also, issues such as
RMI, Web services and the like can confuse the issue, as your apps may
be making use of services provided by components running in other JVMs.
You'd have to check the details of each webapp to verify this.

That's my view - can anyone else confirm or deny?
