      Summary

      FlatProfiler (-Xprof) have been deprecated in JDK 9. For JDK 10 we want to remove the functionality.

      Problem

      This technology is no longer relevant and is a source of root scanning for the GC and contains bugs.

      Solution

      The functionality will be removed from our sources. When using -Xprof the warning message will be change to reflect that this option no longer have any effect.

      Specification

      -Xprof will emit an obsolete warning.
