It did indeed look as if the copy starts before the interrupter thread but that is not guaranteed. I do not know about the difference between agentvm and othervm. Another alternative would be to repeatedly interrupt at a fixed rate with zero delay but I don't know whether the original intent was to have only one interrupt.
