VM doesn't constant fold loads from final fields when field MethodHandles are used.

public class FieldAccess {
    static final int s1 = 123;

    static final MethodHandle f1;
    static {
        try {
            Class<?> THIS_CLASS = FieldAccess.class;
            MethodHandles.Lookup LOOKUP = MethodHandles.lookup();
            f1 = LOOKUP.findStaticGetter(THIS_CLASS, "s1", int.class);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            throw new Error(e);
        }
    }

    static int testMH() throws Throwable {
        return (int)f1.invokeExact();
    }
    static int testDirect() throws Throwable {
        return s1;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable {
        while (true) {
            testDirect();
            testMH();
        }
    }
}
