> The test fails intermittently on Solaris 10 / Sparcv9 with timeout signalled after 480s. The investigation shows that the Sparcv9 Solaris test machines are particularly slow when starting a JVM. This test starts up a new JVM 13 times and when the system is otherwise busy the test can not be finished in 480s.
