# HG changeset patch # User ysr # Date 1287707364 25200 # Node ID cd3ef3fd20dd421ee2f1469d2cb0801bac314d2e # Parent 72a161e62cc456e8190c77de580b10b7767fb806 6992998: CMSWaitDuration=0 causes hangs with +ExplicitGCInvokesConcurrent Summary: Closed a timing hole during which concurrent full gc requests can be missed. The hole can increase the latency of the response to a full gc request by up to the value of CMSWaitDuration. If CMSWaitDuration=0 is, as currently, interpreted as an unbounded wait, suitable in certain tuning scenarios, the application can potentially hang. Made two obscure tunables, including CMSWaitDuration, manageable.
