      jtreg allows for failure handler actions to be run if a test times out or fails. In the JDK repo, we have configured several commands that run as part of those failure handler actions.

      On Linux, one such command is the "ps" command. It has been configured to use the "-L" option which causes it to include all the threads of a process in the output.

      The listing of threads in the ps output hasn't been found to be too helpful. On the contrary, when trying to see what processes are running, the thread entries obscure everything and make the output too long and noisy.

      It would be good to remove the -L option from this command.
