Anthony & Steve,
If you are interested, I added a unit test for batching large numbers of
runLater operations (as a follow up to RT-21569
<https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-21569>), which in FX 8 works on
Windows platforms only because of the InvokeLaterDispatcher.
JIRA: https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-35172
Changeset: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/openjfx/8u-dev/rt/rev/acc894d665a6
As I wrote in the JIRA:
While instrumenting the code, a comment indicates that for SWT
embedding, the InvokeLaterDispatcher is disabled, so this might be an
issue on Windows in that mode. Perhaps a follow-up issue is in order,
although in practice I'm not sure we have ever seen this failure.
