--- Comment #1 from Alexander Motin <mav@FreeBSD.org> ---
Depending on what the applicaiton/java actually does, I can easily believe =
that
behavior could change after the mentioned commit, but it is not necessary a=
n OS
bug, it may be an application bug or a lack of optimization.  Previous code
always waited for at least 2ms in pthread_cond_timedwait(), no matter what
timeout is requested, while after the patch it may wake up much sooner, jus=
t in
few microseconds.  It may be that application really requests wake ups that
often, but previously it was not properly honored.  For better understandin=
g it
would be good to collect information about the actual system calls and their
arguments before and after, either with truss or may be dtrace, etc.
