We seem to be creating a new client and then checking if the caller passed `true` for `shared` and if they did then we are returning a brand new client? Looking at the usage of this `makeNewClient()` method, we should perhaps not even accept a parameter for this method and instead just return a newly created client? ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/10659
