Hi-

Several of my JDK7 JPRT build/test jobs failed recently with:

It appears the fastdebug build has grown enough to blow through some
preallocated size.

jprt rerun -c "..." -excludetests '.*fastdebug-.*-jvm98.*' ...  <JPRT-ID>
The fastdebug build is very close to the perm gen limit.

This fails when using the latest nightly build on solaris-x86:

 /opt/java/jdk1.7.0-b68-2009-08-04/fastdebug/bin/java -XX:SharedReadOnlySize=8100K   -Xshare:dump

This works:

% /opt/java/jdk1.7.0-b68-2009-08-04/fastdebug/bin/java -XX:SharedReadOnlySize=8193K   -Xshare:dump 
VM option 'SharedReadOnlySize=8193K'

Updating references to shared objects ... done.

Only occurs with fastdebug builds of the JDK, which use more space in the shared archive: over 1M more for "pre-ordered read-only objects" plus fairly small additional amounts for other components.  This affects both product and fastdebug JVMs.  Will increase the default SharedReadOnlySize from 8M to 10M in globals.hpp.
