But that then suggests "NMTType" or (better?) "NMTGroup" or something like that. But I don't much like the look of or typing those acronyms. (Note that NMTGroup is HotSpot style, not NmtGroup.) So I'm still preferring "MemType". ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/20497#issuecomment-2290847405
