Hi,

does this commentary suffice?

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~redestad/8168640/webrev.02/

To answer Paul's question about the exact startup gain:

20 named classes observable with -Xlog:class+load (11
additional anonymous show up in heap dumps), for example:

  java.lang.invoke.MethodType$ConcurrentWeakInternSet
  java.lang.invoke.MethodType$ConcurrentWeakInternSet$WeakEntry
  java.lang.invoke.MethodTypeForm
  java.lang.invoke.VarHandle$1
  java.lang.invoke.VarHandle$AccessDescriptor
  java.lang.invoke.VarHandle$AccessMode
  java.lang.invoke.VarHandle$AccessType
  java.lang.invoke.VarHandleGuards
  java.lang.invoke.VarHandleInts$FieldInstanceReadOnly
  java.lang.invoke.VarHandleInts$FieldInstanceReadWrite
  java.lang.invoke.VarHandles
  java.lang.invoke.VarHandle$TypesAndInvokers

Not initializing this eagerly drops retained heap on a minimal
Hello World by ~17Kb, and a 3-10ms startup improvement
on similar programs (naturally varies a lot between systems
due to timing of when/if JIT compilations happen during early
execution).

Thanks!

FileChannelImpl.close() may be idempotent, but why not making sure it is called just once?

Hmm, it would seem like a pre-existing issue that was not dealt with neither before nor after JDK-8025619, no?

And FileChannel inherits AbstractInterruptibleChannel::close() (public final), which specifies behavior: "If the channel has already been closed then this method returns immediately." Thus I don't think the extra ceremony is warranted, won't you agree?

Thanks!

Ok, then what about a hint in the form of a brief comment that there is a race that might invoke FileChannelImpl.close() twice, but it is harmless as FileChannelImpl.close() is idempotent? It might be helpful to a future bug-hunter...

Regards, Peter
