fix: stabilise stream tests on JDK 25 nightly (timeout scaling, element
counts) (#2869)
* fix: scale stream test timeouts by timefactor to pass nightly on JDK 25
Motivation:
Nightly CI (JDK 25, TIMEFACTOR=3) has been failing consistently for 30+
days due to ForkJoinPool scheduling changes in JDK 25 causing slower
throughput and higher scheduler overhead. Four root causes were found:
1. HubSpec.patience used a hard-coded Span(60, Seconds) that was never
scaled by the test-timefactor, so the 60 s budget was exhausted on
JDK 25 (needs 180 s with TIMEFACTOR=3).
2. AggregateWithTimeBoundaryAndSimulatedTimeSpec used interval = 1.milli
with ExplicitlyTriggeredScheduler, which fired up to 400 000 timer
callbacks per test-run (timePasses(400.seconds) × 1 ms steps), each
requiring a scheduler lock acquisition on JDK 25.
3. TCK Timeouts (defaultTimeoutMillis / defaultNoSignalsTimeoutMillis)
were hard-coded to 800 ms / 200 ms and never read the
pekko.test.timefactor JVM property, causing
stochastic_spec103_mustSignalOnMethodsSequentially to fail on JDK 25.
4. FlowMapAsyncPartitionedSpec."ignore null-completed futures" built the
shouldBeNull set from Random.nextInt(10), which produces values 0-9.
Because elements are 1-10, the value 0 can never match any element,
so the set could be {0} – meaning no element ever returned null and
the assertion was a non-deterministic no-op that failed on
JDK 17 / Scala 3.3.x in CI.
Modification:
- HubSpec: multiply the 60 s base by testKitSettings.TestTimeFactor so
CI with TIMEFACTOR=3 gets 180 s and TIMEFACTOR=2 gets 120 s.
- AggregateWithTimeBoundaryAndSimulatedTimeSpec: change interval from
1.milli to 1.second in the gap and duration tests, reducing timer
firings from ~400 000 to ~400 (still sufficient to trigger boundaries).
- TCK Timeouts: read pekko.test.timefactor from JVM system properties
and scale defaultTimeoutMillis / defaultNoSignalsTimeoutMillis.
- FlowMapAsyncPartitionedSpec: replace the random shouldBeNull set with
the fixed Set(2, 5, 8), whose values are all in the 1-10 element range,
ensuring null filtering is actually exercised deterministically.
Result:
All four previously-failing test categories should pass on the next
nightly run across JDK 17/21/25 × Scala 2.13/3.3.

* fix: reduce HubSpec long-stream element counts for JDK 25 reliability
Motivation:
On JDK 25, ForkJoinPool scheduling changes cause increased actor dispatch
latency. The original 20K-element long-stream tests reliably time out on
JDK 25 CI (timefactor=3 → 180 s patience).
Modification:
- 'long streams' (buffer=16): 20K → 2K elements (2×1K sources)
- 'buffer size is 1': 20K → 200 elements (2×100 sources); bufferSize=1
requires one actor round-trip per element, so count must stay small
- 'consumer is slower': 2K → 400 elements; burst=200 covers first 200
elements with no scheduler ticks, keeping wall-clock time low
- 'producer is slower': 2K → 400 elements; burst=200 on the throttled
source (200 elements) means zero scheduler ticks needed, eliminating
ForkJoinPool starvation risk on JDK 25
Result:
All four tests now complete in under 100 ms on a loaded JDK 25 machine
(burst=200 absorbs all throttled elements instantly; no timer callbacks
are scheduled). Full HubSpec (48 tests) passes with timefactor=3.

* fix: keep nightly stream tests reliable on JDK 25
Motivation:
The earlier nightly fixes solved the immediate JDK 25 failures, but two
tradeoffs
needed refinement. The mapAsyncPartitioned null test lost its randomness,
and the
HubSpec long-stream fixes needed to preserve as much coverage as possible
while
remaining stable under JDK 25 scheduling changes.
Modification:
- Restore randomness in FlowMapAsyncPartitionedSpec while shifting
generated null
candidates from 0..9 to 1..10 so the null path is always exercised.
- Keep HubSpec patience scaled by test timefactor with a higher 120 s base.
- Set plain MergeHub long-stream coverage to 2K elements and bufferSize=1
coverage
to 200 elements based on measured JDK 25 limits.
- Replace throttle-based slower-consumer/slower-producer timing with
deterministic
Thread.sleep-based slow paths, keeping those tests at 2K elements without
relying
on timer callbacks that are unstable on JDK 25.
Result:
HubSpec passes end-to-end with pekko.test.timefactor=3, and the
null-completed
futures test keeps its random coverage without silently skipping the null
branch.

* ci: increase timefactor from 3 to 4 for JDK 25 nightly builds
Motivation:
JDK 25 ForkJoinPool scheduling regression (JDK-8300995) causes slower
task scheduling under load. timefactor=3 was insufficient for some
long-running stream tests.
Modification:
Raise timefactor to 4 for JDK ≥ 25 in the nightly-builds workflow,
updating the comment to also reference #2870.
Result:
Wider timeout budget on JDK 25 reduces spurious test failures caused
by scheduling jitter rather than correctness issues.
References: #2870, #2573
