Question: Large #'s of webapps

I was wondering if there is any issue with hosting a large number of
separate webapps on a single Tomcat instance.  By large number I mean around
200 or more.  Will this greatly impact my memory usage?

Also, if I have multiple webapps using a common named package, and the jar
for that package is in each webapp's web-inf/lib directory, will it load in
a separate memory space than the same package for another webapp, or will it
be smart enough to share it if it is the same.  Also, what happens if there
are different versions of the same package in different webapp's web-inf/lib
directory?
