Unit test TestPureJavaCRC32 warmup code warms up the not-so-important loop in 
PureJavaCRC32.update()
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-7401
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7401
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: test
    Affects Versions: 0.21.0
         Environment: Solaris-Sparcv9; Solaris-AMD64
            Reporter: monica beckwith
            Priority: Minor


When the warmup code sequence in TestPureJavaCRC32.java is executed, it sends 
size=len=2 and due to the value of 'trials' in for loop in doBench(), the 
crc.update() gets run > compile threshold, thus providing the information that 
'while 0>len<7' is a hot loop and 'while len>7' is a cold loop. This brings the 
MB/s number for len > 7 in PureJavaCRC32.update() way down (e.g. ~28.5% for 
size=len=65536) .
