I implemented the changes similar to all other tests in this directory.
Using createLimitedTestJavaProcessBuilder seems reasonable but it means that we need to skip this tests for any other parameters except "-XX:+UseParallelGC". Usually we use  'vm.flagless' for such tests, however it means that we don't run it even with "-XX:+UseParallelGC". Unfortunately there is no easy way no run this test only if "-XX:+UseParallelGC" or no options are set. 
There is a bug that might improve options handling in such tests:
