Maybe you are thinking about the size of libsunec or non-technical issues that meant it wasn't included by some distributions? There weren't an issue with deciding which providers to include to java.base. I think the motivation for having the SunEC provider in java.base now is probably TLS so there are more secure cipher suites available for those that create a small run-image with jlink and don't include all security providers. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/14457#issuecomment-1596574579
