I closed https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8206076 (timeouts with 
-Xcomp)
  as a duplicate of
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8203820 (where I took 
InMemoryCompiler out of the threads)
because that's where the attempted fix was.

I think
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8202896 (getting Too many open 
files intermittently)
should be closed as a duplicate too because it's the same root cause.

And this one:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8208074 (broken fix)
fixes my fix and will remove the test from the ProblemList.txt.

I believe it should be removed fromt he problem list because I don't 
think it will time out or intermittently fail again for the same 
reason.  If it times out or fails for a different reason, we should file 
a whole new bug, with that specific analysis.

Thanks,
Coleen
