From my reading of RegressionParameters.getTestVMJavaOptions() it would seem than in practice the two options are interchangeable. Is there some other distinction I am missing? The command line help includes a see also for each to the other but doesn't explain any difference.

Mike,

VM options you specify with -vmoption are used for all JVMs created by 
jtreg, for both javac and java commands.

In contrast, VM options you specify with -javaoption are only used for 
JVMs for java commands.
