      Summary

      Deprecate Solaris-only options VMThreadHintNoPreempt and CompilerThreadHintNoPreempt.

      Solution

      Deprecate and remove.

      Specification

      product(bool, VMThreadHintNoPreempt, false, \ "(Solaris only) Give VM thread an extra quanta") \

      product(bool, CompilerThreadHintNoPreempt, true, \ "(Solaris only) Give compiler threads an extra quanta") \ \
