Description

I'm sorry, that I haven't steps to reproduce the situation, but

after some houres of using the proxy servlet with apache tomcat 7.0.42 it (tomcat or servlet) stops responding.

Also I had the similar situation with WebSphere 7. After couple of days of using the proxy servlet the app with it stopped responding.

Research direction

Start by investigating the proxy servlet under Apache Tomcat 7.0.42 and WebSphere 7, using container and application logs to determine why it stops responding after extended use. Done means reproducing the long-running failure and documenting or resolving the condition that makes the servlet or container unresponsive.
