This is because of JDK-8233705, which can lead to multiple klass entries enqueued via the load barrier, in combination with an insufficient filter mechanism for the leak profiler artefacts. Leak profiler artefacts range over the entire set of artefacts enqueued in the previous epoch. A filtering mechanism similar to the one used for regular artefacts becomes necessary to avoid duplicates.
