There's a couple cents from me twoo ;)

Dual-personality (-d32 and -d64) - yes both please. There are small services 
written in Java mostly for portability rather than scalability. They do not 
require 4g+ VM space, but would suffer (consume noticeably mkre hist memory) 
from largish 64-bit pointers all over the stack.

Also, a showstopper for Oracle JDK8u25 and 8u11 on my laptop in a particular 
usecase for me was that Netbeans 8.0.2 won't start up (cleanly) with "The 
package containing the class javax.swing.JComponentBeanInfo was not found". 
Same issue  with OpenJDK7 (1.7.0_080 oi internal), but works ok with Oracle JDK 
7u65. Note that to test this, export netbeans_jdkhome=... rather than common 
JAVA_HOME.
