While testing JVM 1.6.16 before using it for our application i've found a strange bug.

The VM ALWAYS crash when i execute this quite simple sample of code.

Do anyone reproduce the problem or has any clue of it's reason ?

package crashVM;
 
public class CrashTest {
 
 /**
  * @param args
  */
 public static void main(String[] args) {
   for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++)
     NestedLoop();
 }
 
 public static long NestedLoop() {
   final int n = 50;
 
   long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
 
   int x = 0;
   for (int a = 0; a < n; a++)
     for (int b = 0; b < n; b++)
       for (int c = 0; c < n; c++)
         for (int d = 0; d < n; d++)
           for (int e = 0; e < n; e++)
             for (int f = 0; f < n; f++)
               x++;
 
   long stopTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
 
   return stopTime - startTime;
 }
 
}



Thanx !
