Description
The VM Option "-Xprof" is deprecated in JDK 9 and will be removed in a future release. The option provides some profiling data for code being executed to standard output. Better data can be gathered with other tools such as Java Flight Recorder and therefore "-Xprof" will no longer be available in a future release.
