Hi Jiangli,
Before we spend time on the CSR review, do you have any data that shows
the actual benefit of doing this? I am specifically asking about the
benefit to JVMTI agents.
As I mentioned before, there's an alternative, which is to not use the
optimization when JVMTI is enabled. I don't think we should spend time
worrying about the impact to JVMTI agents unless there's a compelling
reasons to do so.
Thanks

David, I described that the JVM spec allows for eager or lazy linking
and agents shouldn't rely on the timing/ordering, as you suggested.
Please review the CSR. It's been a while since I've worked on a CSR,
could you please remind me if the CSR should be proposed before
reviewing? I can revert it to draft state if draft is the correct
state before reviewing. Thanks!
Best regards,
Jiangli
