The threshold allowed by the test (1000000) is smaller than the minimum increment of JVM memory expansion (1048576). It is likely that some small allocation causes the VM to expand total memory. The threshold flags any increase as a failure. The threshold should be increased to 2 Mb and the test should run a full set of iterations (1 second) before reporting a failure.
