Hi Frank,
These performance measurements would be good to add as JMH tests in
open/test/micro...
Thanks, Roger

Hi Aleksey
I happened to see the performance to access a field by VarHandle API is much
worse than the native access.
I tested the following situations:
1. reading a volatile field directly
2. calling getVolatile against this volatile field
3. calling getVolatile against another non-volatile field
As my expectation, Situation 2 has similar performance with situation 3, but
both of them have 100 times of situation 1 execution time in my test.
I think it should be due to some overhead, and it doesn't violate the JEP 193
performance requirement. But I still can't figure out why it's so slow after
runtime compiling? Hope you can give me some point. Thanks!
My test code is as below:

private volatile int vf = 1;
private int f = 1;
final VarHandle vhf;
final VarHandle vhvf;
final ThreadMXBean threadMXBean;
public Test5 () throws Exception {
vhf = MethodHandles.lookup().findVarHandle(
Test5.class, "f", int.class);
vhvf = MethodHandles.lookup().findVarHandle(
Test5.class, "vf", int.class);
threadMXBean = ManagementFactory.getThreadMXBean();
//System.out.println(threadMXBean.isCurrentThreadCpuTimeSupported());
//System.out.println(threadMXBean.isThreadCpuTimeEnabled());

tmpProgress += vf;
}
long endCpu = threadMXBean.getCurrentThreadCpuTime();
long endUser = threadMXBean.getCurrentThreadUserTime();
long durCpu = endCpu -startCpu;
long durUser = endUser - startUser;
System.out.println("measGetVolatileField");
