Description
It seems that there exists a memory/performance regression that was introduced with JDK-8210985: Update the default SSL session cache size to 20480.

The idea to limit the maixmum SSL session cache size by itself is good. Unfortunately, as per the current implementation of sun.security.util.MemoryCache, it also modifies the initial size of the LinkedHashMap that is backing the cache to initialize with more than the maximum size.
Comments
Fix request (13u) Request to backport it to 13u. The patch applies cleanly.

Fix request (8u) Request backport, as the problem is present in OpenJDK 8u since 8u222. Patch applies cleanly.

The comment block for cache details probably deserved an update during this bug fix: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/64feeab70af61a52ffe4c64df87a33c16754de18/src/java.base/share/classes/sun/security/util/Cache.java#L60-L68

Fix request (11u, 15u) Requesting backport of this regression fix to JDK11 and 15 updates. Patch applies cleanly.

It is a duplicate but it was opened against jdk8 so we might keep it open until this issue is fixed and downported.

Maybe JDK-8253116 is a duplicate
