Tyops in XX opts

[Chris Dennis]

The two of you are seeing the difference between 1.7 and 1.8:

Chriss-MacBook-Pro:lambda cdennis$ ${JAVA_HOME_18}/bin/java -XX:+UseParallelOldGCC
Unrecognized VM option 'UseParallelOldGCC'
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

Chriss-MacBook-Pro:lambda cdennis$ ${JAVA_HOME_17}/bin/java -XX:+UseParallelOldGCC
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
