Startup-mode

The <startup-mode> directive configures the initial deployment state of a <web-app> or <host>.

• automatic - starts the instance automatically at server startup
• lazy - starts the instance on a request
• manual - only starts with a management (JMX) command

The default <startup-mode> is "automatic" which is the correct choice for most applications. For sites with large numbers of web-apps or virtual hosts, the "lazy" startup-mode can save some memory.
