I am curious: what is the memory overhead for parallel mode, and (I am not familiar with the logic) how many threads are involved? Is the number of thread bounded? I ask because, especially for the OnOOM handling, we may already be at a limit memory-wise. Starting to swap will probably be worse than running single-threaded. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/18748#issuecomment-2051046673
