No easy way to do that. The underlying jcmd protocol works on a request-answer base, so it is not prepared to stream output as it comes. Even if we change that, and it would be good to change, this would possibly add incompatibilities with older jcmd versions (being able to use any jcmd on any VM is really handy).
