RFR (trivial): 8214217: [TESTBUG] runtime/appcds/LotsOfClasses.java failed on solaris sparcv9

[Ioi Lam]

Hi Jiangli,

-Xms3G will most likely fail on 32-bit platforms.

BTW, why would this test fail only on Solaris and not linux? The test 
doesn't specify heap size, so the initial heap size setting is picked by 
Ergonomics. Can you reproduce the failure on Linux by using the same 
heap size settings used by the failed Solaris runs?

I think it's better to find out the root cause than just to mask it. The 
purpose of LotsOfClasses.java is to stress the system to find out 
potential bugs.

Thanks

- Ioi
