A number of regression tests have designated short timeouts and have been the cause of intermittent test failures on slow machines or on builds with slower runtime execution speeds, e.g. -Xcomp, etc.
The jtreg regression harness uses 2 minutes as the default timeout value for forcing a test failure. http://openjdk.java.net/jtreg/tag-spec.txt Some tests designated less than 120 seconds as a preferred timeout value. This changeset removes timeouts set lower than the default jtreg limit. To accommodate slower configurations the harness is run with a 4x timeoutFactor from the default test makefile. jdk/test/Makefile JTREG_TIMEOUT_OPTION = -timeoutFactor:4 This ensures that slow machines are not terminated prematurely on automated regression test runs.
