RFR 9 test-only RFR 8177328 : java/lang/ClassLoader/securityManager/ClassLoaderTest.java times out with -Xcomp

[Jonathan Gibbons]

So how long does the test typically take to run, with and without -Xcomp.

If you are running with -Xcomp /and/ a timeoutfactor, that timeout of 
1200s is going to be multiplied by the timeout factor!
