Overall lgtm; minor change requested.
At the end of compilation the JIT acquires the VM class mutex just before performing chtable.commit(). We can skip this lock acquire operation if we test beforehand that a chtable.commit does not need to be performed. This can speed up AOT loads and some JIT compilations, because they don't have to wait for the VM class mutex. Contention on the VM class mutex has been shown to be very heavy in very large applications that load very many classes. Partially addresses issue eclipse-openj9#13807 Signed-off-by: Marius Pirvu <mpirvu@ca.ibm.com>
