> The `DontYieldALot` flag is an anachronism from very early Java days - see JBS issue for some details. It should be deprecated for removal in JDK 23.
>
> BTW the description of the flag:
>> Throw away obvious excess yield calls
>
> has been incorrect for a long time - it throws away all yield calls.
>
> As I was changing globals.hpp I also took the opportunity to remove the unused `DontYieldALotInterval` flag.
>
> Testing:
> - tiers 1-3 (sanity)
>
> Thanks
