Configuration is a problem, if you can't read(.) the install info(eg: not 
english)...else you'll love it, it's flexible and supports the latest specs.

Best of all, you get the source code enabling rapid inhouse problem 
resolution and code modifications, IF you do get stuck.

My first install moving from jserv/gnujsp, took very little time and effort.

A reasonable reason for not going commercial with Tomcat is that "production 
readiness" was only reached recently. ie: settling time may be required, but 
your app testing plan should highlight any issues.
