The original test (Sorting.java) does not have the `DeoptimizeALot` and other additional flags like `-Xcomp -ea -esa -XX:CompileThreshold=100` , etc. The other vmoptions were passed as additional flags during specific tests. Could we follow the same approach for this deoptimization test as well and limit the number of default flags?
