HPROF

Java includes HPROF, a profiler which collect application runtime information. HPROF is capable of presenting CPU usage, heap allocation statistics, and monitor contention profiles.

For example, can collect CPU usage information by sampling threads. Add this line to $TOMCAT_HOME/bin/setenv.sh file:

JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -agentlib:hprof=cpu=samples"

When Tomcat starts you can see a file called java.hprof.txt. The CPU profiling info will be dumped to this file once Tomcat process is stopped.
