  I think this looks good. Could you also write a small test that calls
sun.misc.GC.maxObjectInspectionAge() (or wherever it has been moved in
jdk9, it should be in sun.rmi.transport now?) to verify that no gc
returns 0 after a GC (and some artificial pause)?

Using whitebox to issue full/young gcs directly should make that fairly
easy.

Thanks,
