Many people are using various Tomcat versions without any apparent
memory leaks. I would guess that either:

1. You simply need more memory to support the numbers of users you
 have.
2. Your application is leaking objects or resources.

If you read past the description of the bug, you'd see:

1. This was a bug logged against JIRA, which is a bug-tracking tool.
2. The issue was identified as a problem with JIRA and corrected.

You should upgrade to 5.5.23 if possible, since that is the latest 5.5
version available.
