ibm-java80-jdk - IBM Java(TM) Development Kit (JDK) 8.0

This package is a bin decompress and packaged directly from binary distributed, main difference: consumes MUCH MORE RAM in exchange for BETTER USE OF CPU consumption that is delivered by the optimizations can make the trade-off worthwhile.

The only difference between our 2 flavours of java agent is that the "IBM Java Agent" does not request the ability to retransform classes at runtime, allows the same capability, but even requesting it disables certain runtime code optimisations that the JVM can make, meaning that the CPU cost per unit of work in the J9 JVM is higher if this ability is enabled. so as not to force applications to incur this performance penalty.
