(Same considerations apply to `_hash_slot`.) This is because the C++ runtime does secondary super cache lookups even before the bitmap has been calculated and the hash table sorted. In this case the bitmap is zero, so teh search thinks there are no secondary supers. Setting _bitmap to SECONDARY_SUPERS_BITMAP_FULL forces a linear search. I guess there might be a better way to do this. Perhaps a comment is needed? I agree about `_secondary_supers_bitmap` name. ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/19989#discussion_r1681410651
