The o/p might go to stdout, rather than to the gc log file in
case you have the one redirected and not the other.

Once you know what those safepoints are for, you can use more specific
flags to see what's happening there (for example as Tony conjectured
perhaps biased locking; or global deoptimization due to class loading etc.)
