Yeah, I think we do worse, e.g. GC stress tests in tier3, which can hog CPUs 
for minutes, without ill effects. Not sure if we stress out huge amount of 
threads.

Anyway, this is similar to other parallelism improvements we did over the 
previous years, e.g. https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8273433, 
https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8273438 -- so I gradually continue this one 
test directory after another :)
