> Hello,
> 
> We observe a crash when running a major GC very early, which unloads classes, calling into JFR which is not properly set up for class unloading this early. A simple fix for this is to move the creation of the symbol table to the early setup of JFR, which allows us to successfully call `JfrCheckpointManager::on_unloading_classes()`.
> 
> Testing:
>  * Crash reproducer no longer crashes
>  * Running through Oracle's tier1-4
