Shouldn't this test rather declare the conditions when it is supposed to
work? According to the issue this was caused by introducing the
"-XX:+ExplicitGCInvokesConcurrent"
which makes it very tricky to make any assumptions about the GC process.

See eg. jdk/tests/java/lang/management/MemoryMXBean/LowMemoryTest.java for
enabling the test only for allowed configurations.

Cheers,
