Description
After making the server vm as the default on win32 caused much more address space usage, various tests were updated to workaround this situation and avoid spurious failures (JDK-8168499, JDK-8163999, JDK-8165193).

With changes to reduce memory usage on the vm side (JDK-8166002), these test changes should be reverted on a trial basis to see if the tests run reliably with the revised vm config.
