Thanks, no problem, this is not urgent. I think tiered testing is by definition tests things broadly, beyond the scope of feature-centric test groups. I think not breaking JDK management APIs and JFR (that I believe includes JDK events too) would is the useful check for a high jdk:tier3. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6619
