Peter,

The problem you're seeing may be addressed by some
work in progress that is being done under CR

6923991: G1: improve scalability of RSet scanning

I don't think that work has been released yet.  If it hasn't,
with your permission, we'll try your test program with
it and see how well it does.

By the way, thank you very much for giving G1
a look.  Especially for the details in your mail.

Jon
