Hi, with this new test I'm seeing large deviations using IBM JDKs and
different platforms, for example:
`java.lang.AssertionError: assertion failed: deviation too large:
0.25359712230215825, first size: 26688, second size: 19920`
Is the 20% deviation particularly important? Why this number?
FYI here's the comparison between different Java vendors and architectures:
- OpenJDK on Intel (passes), cacheSize1: 180392 and cacheSize2: 187896
(4.07%)
- IBM JDK with SUSE on zSystems (fails): cacheSize1: 26688 and cacheSize2:
19920 (29%)
- IBM JDK with Ubuntu 14 04 on Power 8 LE (fails): cacheSize1: 26688 and
cacheSize2: 19920 (29%)
- IBM JDK with Ubuntu 14 04 on Intel (fails): cacheSize1: 354692 and
cacheSize2: 263800 (29.3%)
I'll look into this, interesting that with IBM Java it's always a very
similar and much larger percentage
