Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8205966
webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dholmes/8205966/webrev/
One of the @run variants was taking around 15x longer to execute. That
variant uses the InMemoryJavaCompiler which involves a lot of classes
and code execution. The test was enabling method entry event generation
for all of main, resulting in the massive slowdown.
The fix is to add a new breakpoint() function that gets called after the
in-memory compilation setup is done, and we initially run the test to
that point before enabling the events.
The problem @run now only takes 2x the other tests and so should avoid
the timeouts.
Testing: mach5 tier4 solaris-sparc
mach5 tier 1-3
Thanks,
