RFR: 8153194: PreserveFPRegistersTest.java runs out of memory in the nightlies

[Rahul Raghavan]

Hi,

Thank you Vladimir for your comments.
Yes, agree to your points and made the changes.
Also additionally added @build (found required when tried the single test run in RBT)
Please check the revised <webrev.01> : http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rraghavan/8153194/webrev.01/
No issues found with local jtreg testing, RBT .

Thanks,
Rahul
