      When a reliability tests is run with ps 6.3 from the Orion 7a installer the test fails with repeated OOM errors. We can see from the GC log that until the first Full GC, everything seems normal. However, once Full GCs start, they don't stop even when there is plenty of memory available.

      Here is a snippet of the gc log:

      The test was run with ParallelGC. However using ParNewGC and ConcMarkSweepGC does not improve the situation.

      The jvm team suggested a workaround, specifically to disable
