This test doesn't switch L&Fs .. if it wasn't for mac defaulting to Aqua they'd all be using Metal. So this is an accidental by-product, not the goal of the test. And that goal be met by the test writing out the serialized objects and reading them back all at "test time", can't it ? Seems to me right now we are stumbling over cases where what is serialized is inappropriate for persistent serialization. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6603
