Hi all, As we fixed the HeapMonitorTest to not fail from time to time, there seems to be the same issue and risk in HeapMonitorGCTest. Could someone review the similar fix:
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jcbeyler/8208251/webrev.00/ Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8208251 The risk is that the last interval is too big and no sampled object is live after the allocation method. If a GC happens before the check for sample code, it is possible no live objects still exist. The solution is to reduce the sampling interval to make it highly unlikely for no samples to happen in any allocation iteration, keeping at least one sampled object live. But also check the GC'd objects in the system in case they did actually all already get GC'd. Thanks, Jc
