Hi Alan, thanks for pointing me at the old discussion .

talks about performance benefits . Are you aware of some benchmarks
that showed the improvements ?
In reality, if you have the latest distro versions you might be lucky and you
have a nice recent zlib 1.2.11 .
However on older distros , you run in reality into older zlibs (often I see
1.2.8). I don't think that this is a very good status .
At least I think building.md should be fixed to state the real status , the
current info is wrong :
"Certain third-party libraries used by the JDK (libjpeg, giflib, libpng, lcms
and zlib) are included in the JDK repository. The default behavior of the
JDK build is to use this version of these libraries, but they might be
replaced by an external version. To do so, specify `system` as the
`<source>`
option in these arguments. (The default is `bundled`)."
Btw how is building.html generated , is this coming from building.md ?
Yes, you need to configure with pandoc. Then you run "make
update-build-docs".
