APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Error Message: N/A
    .
    Stack Trace: N/A
    .
    

Local fix

  • This problem can be relieved by not running with the
    -Xquickstart or -Xtune:virtualized options. However this may
    result in the CPU utilization increasing more than the amount
    saved from trying to avoid the issue. Alternatively, disable
    AOT compilations with the -Xnoaot option.
    

Problem summary

  • Unnecessary recompilations at higher optimization levels have
    been noticed on AOT loads when running under -Xquickstart or
    -Xtune:virtualized. There is no functional problem, but the
    additional compilations can result in more CPU utilization.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The JIT has been modified to address this issue
    .
    This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases:
       7 R1 SR3 FP0   (7.1.3.0)
       7    SR9 FP0   (7.0.9.0)
