Andrew Hughes has opened up the jdk8u repo today for critical fixes.

Clearly, this current patch is not in itself a critical fix. However, it
does pave the way for the follow-up JFR leak analysis fix. My view is
that the follow-up patch also should not be regarded as critical. The
performance problem the follow-up patch fixes can be avoided by not
using leak analysis. Clearly users of jdk8u should be able to continue
to operate their deployments without leak analysis if they are already
doing so.

So, I suggest that this patch and the follow-up are not pushed until
after the next jdk8u release. I'll be happy to review the follow-up once
you provide the extra requested details of the changes made.

Of course, I am not a jdk8u maintainer. If you disagree with me about
the criticality of these patches you can ask one of the maintainers to
comment.

regards,
