This test takes about 170 sec to execute from jtreg on PIII 800MHz/256MB machine and it's more than 120 sec which is set as the limit. Please refer to the log file attatched. (It is passing since timeout was extended by -timeout option for investigation)
Please note that when compiled and executed using javac and java commands, the execution will complete within 100 and few seconds. So to reproduce please use jtreg to run the test.

The test case seems to be changed since b32c but in both cases after/before this modification does this problem occur.

If this was rather a harness problem, please change to appropriate category.
