Jboss uses tomcat as the web container. Tomcat is just a web container supporting Servlet 2.5 and JSP 2.1, if you want other things like EJB, you can use JBoss, or other java application server packages.
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
