I don't believe that.  Logging's been in the system since JDK 9, and 
it's pretty intuitive.

Actually, I partially agree with this.  I think the table at the end, 
and maybe even the shared region %ages part could be -Xlog:cds=debug, 
but all of the output should be under -Xlog:cds={info,debug}.

Someone experimenting with CDS should absolutely already know about 
-Xlog:cds.  That's not a stretch.  We're trying to get to the jvm not 
having any tty->print() anymore, and all output is controlled so that 
users can choose what they see.  UL is nice that you have this 
flexibility to see what you want.

So I agree that making the last part of the output -Xlog:cds=debug or 
even -Xlog:cds+regions=info.
