Hi Alan,
If you would like to improve the performance a little bit more,
you can make additional changes (see the patch) to JmodTask
and maybe Claes can rerun his tests to see if it helps.
These look good too, even as general clean ups, but it would
be good to get some numbers on them.
Andrej - aside from the micro benchmarks, the real test is `make jmods`
where the tool runs N times (N = number of modules) to create the
packaged modules. Short lived tools have always been the JDK's Achilles
heel. It may be that we will eventually need a "jmod server", like the
sjavac server in the build today. Alternative it could be wrapped in
another tool that capable of creating several packaged modules. There is
a balance here as we also don't want to over complicated things.
