Description
Take this:
public class Hello {
public static void main(String... args) throws Throwable {
System.out.println("Hello World");
System.in.read();
}
}
Config system to accept THP:
$ cat /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/{enabled,defrag}
always [madvise] never
always defer defer+madvise [madvise] never
Run with:
$ java -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseShenandoahGC -Xmx100g -Xms100g -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch -XX:+UseTransparentHugePages Hello

It is not really committed (RSS/PSS is low), and no THP is used (AnonHugePages is zero).
JDK-8213927 fixed the similar issue in G1, we need to fix it in Shenandoah as well.
On one hand, this is AlwaysPreTouch problem, but we also have to communicate heap alignment to heap reservation code to use any flavor of large pages.
