Hi Alan,

The suite has been developed and tested under JDK8 and full support of JDK11 is planned for the 1.0.0 release. Regarding the latest JDK and ea versions, we’ll do our best to test it regularly but if the Java Product Group at Oracle could regularly check its compatibility and performance, that would be great. From what I can tell, none of the apache-spark benchmarks will run with with any recent feature releases. They all fall over with HADOOP-14586 in code that is parsing the value of "java.version" property. The database benches seems to have issues too, seems to be code in one of Chronicle libraries trying to hack java.lang.reflect.AccessibleObject privates. Are you, or others, working with these projects to get fixes or versions that run on more recent releases, maybe as part of the effort to get it to run on JDK 11 builds?

I'm only asking because most of the activity in OpenJDK is the main line, currently targeting JDK 13, and in the project repos that are developing features that will eventually go into the main line. It would be nice to be able to have the benchmark suite usable on the latest code base. It is of course useful to be able to run it on update releases too but I'm less interested in that.
