      Description

        There is a jtreg test library to help with ensuring the GC runs, `test/lib/jdk/test/lib/util/ForceGC.java`. And there are also some test case use System.gc() directly for cleaner testing. It looks like a good idea to replace the test code that runs/checks the GC with `ForceGC.await()`.
