That workload is the variant of SPECjvm2008:mpegaudio. My previous attempts to reproduce it failed,
but now I can reliably fail it with:

$ ~/trunks/zgc-zgc/build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/jdk/bin/java -Xmx1g -Xms1g
-XX:+AlwaysPreTouch -XX:-TieredCompilation -XX:+UseZGC -jar SPECjvm2008.jar -ikv -ict mpegaudio -bt 1

SPECjvm2008 Base
  Properties file:   none
  Benchmarks:        mpegaudio
