Hi everyone, 

 

Please review this small change that removes os::check_heap, it's proven to
be unreliable. The same functionality and more can be enabled in Windows
using gflags (pageheap) or by turning on heap debugging in Windbg using the
!heap extension. 

 

Tested by running hotspot_fast_runtime test group on all platforms.

Thanks,

Christian
