https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8001105
I would like to backport this fix to 7u (preferably 7u60). The bug was filed to affect versions 7 and 8 was pushed to 8 only. Here is the changeset: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/jdk/rev/97d5cc1e7586 and the original review thread with a pointer to the original report: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-compiler-dev/2013-September/011769.html I’ve created a backport for 7u60 for now to keep track: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8036531 Let me know what you think.
