Thanks Leonid, I didn't see much value in that - we can see in the same file the return value of currentQueryIndexForProcess() is going to be -1 or an index from the for loop iteration from 0 to INT_MAX. We can do that if you really feel it has a benefit? ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/15750#discussion_r1336871050
