Hi Andrey,

Now that I have got back from holiday I have had a chance to try this.

The following is what I tried.

- Initial C1 build.
- Rebuild using C1 above
- Build 'core' to check this still works
- Run jtreg hotspot and langtools
- Build a fastdebug version
- Run jtreg hotspot and langtools using the fastdebug vsn

The only problem I noticed was there were a couple of assertion
failures running jtreg hotspot with the fastdebug version.

Apart from that it seems pretty solid.

I also did some benchmarking. I am not going to disclose the results on
the list, but I was very pleased with the results, >> 50X performance
improvement over template interpreter.

If there are no objections I will tag the current state of the tree and
push this within the next day or so. Do you have a list of all the
contributors at Azul so I can add them to the commit?

Thanks for this. This will make a lot of people very happy.

Ed.
