How to skip "Creating CDS-NOCOOPS archive for jdk image for server"

[Daniel Fuchs]

Hi Oliver,

I usually use '$ make jdk-image' rather than '$ make images'
when I want to compile an image for running tests locally.

Not sure it will solve your problem, but in my experience
it saves a few cycles.

best regards,
