Thanks for the benchmarking. I was unaware of the microbenchmark `java.io.ObjectStreamClasses`. The performance penalty is likely related to aarch64 being slower on volatile load. I see no observable difference on x86-64: Benchmark Mode Cnt Score Error Units # Before ObjectStreamClasses.testLookup avgt 8 230.255 ± 10.540 ns/op # After ObjectStreamClasses.testLookup avgt 8 230.291 ± 19.369 ns/op Anyway, this race does look benign and I'm OK with just documenting this benign race, and suppress it in TSAN.
