Yes, that is an interest case, but largely orthogonal to the primary use-case for this particular micro benchmark (or maybe; the primary use-case that I want to use this benchmark for ;-) ). It appears to me that the primary purpose is to evaluate the memory access operations, so I want to keep buffer allocation out of the picture. Of course, we could decide to just create a new benchmark, but then I'm not sure what we'd use the old one for. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1430
