This will improve performance and reduce the number of object even though the backing array will go from an initial 32 in the CHM to an initial/final 145 in the ARA. The CHM will contain much more objects and array slots for typical numbers of entries in the cache and will compute hash/bucket/collision on the hot code path for each cache access.

I think we should feed the value of `zo.getTotalSeconds()` into Blackhole, see https://github.com/openjdk/jmh/blob/master/jmh-samples/src/main/java/org/openjdk/jmh/samples/JMHSample_34_SafeLooping.java#L128
