问题:

I was comparing the performance of JDK 8 and 11 using jmh 1.21 when I ran across some surprising numbers:

Java version: 1.8.0_192, vendor: Oracle Corporation

Benchmark                Mode  Cnt  Score   Error  Units
MyBenchmark.emptyMethod  avgt   25  0.362 ± 0.001  ns/op


Java version: 9.0.4, vendor: Oracle Corporation

Benchmark                Mode  Cnt  Score    Error  Units
MyBenchmark.emptyMethod  avgt   25  0.362 ±  0.001  ns/op


Java version: 10.0.2, vendor: Oracle Corporation

Benchmark                Mode  Cnt  Score   Error  Units
MyBenchmark.emptyMethod  avgt   25  0.723 ± 0.001  ns/op


Java version: 11.0.1, vendor: Oracle Corporation

Benchmark                Mode  Cnt  Score   Error  Units
MyBenchmark.emptyMethod  avgt   25  0.724 ± 0.002  ns/op

OpenJDK 11 and 12 perform similar to OracleJDK 11. I have omitted their numbers for the sake of brevity.

I understand that microbenchmarks do not indicate the performance behavior of real-life applications. Still, I'm curious where this difference is coming from. Any ideas?

Here is the benchmark in its entirety:

src/main/java/jmh/MyBenchmark.java:

package jmh;

import org.openjdk.jmh.annotations.Benchmark;
import org.openjdk.jmh.annotations.BenchmarkMode;
import org.openjdk.jmh.annotations.Mode;
import org.openjdk.jmh.annotations.OutputTimeUnit;

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

@BenchmarkMode(Mode.AverageTime)
@OutputTimeUnit(TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS)
public class MyBenchmark
{
    @Benchmark
    public void emptyMethod()
    {
    }
}

Here is the Windows-specific script I use. It should be trivial to translate it to other platforms:

set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_192
call mvn -V -Djavac.target=1.8 clean install
"%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java" -jar target\benchmarks.jar

set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9.0.4
call mvn -V -Djavac.target=9 clean install
"%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java" -jar target\benchmarks.jar

set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-10.0.2
call mvn -V -Djavac.target=10 clean install
"%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java" -jar target\benchmarks.jar

set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\oracle-11.0.1
call mvn -V -Djavac.target=11 clean install
"%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java" -jar target\benchmarks.jar

My runtime environment is:

Apache Maven 3.6.0 (97c98ec64a1fdfee7767ce5ffb20918da4f719f3; 2018-10-24T14:41:47-04:00)
Maven home: C:\Program Files\apache-maven-3.6.0\bin\..
Default locale: en_CA, platform encoding: Cp1252
OS name: "windows 10", version: "10.0", arch: "amd64", family: "windows"

More specifically, I am running Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17763.195].

You are measuring empty benchmarks, not empty methods. In other words, measuring the minimal infrastructure code that handles the benchmark itself. This is easy to dissect, because you'd expect only a few instructions on the hot path. JMH's -prof perfasm or -prof xperfasm would give you those hottest instructions in seconds.

I think the effect is due to Thread-Local Handshakes (JEP 312), see:

8u191: 0.389 ± 0.029 ns/op [so far so good]

  3.60%  ↗  ...a2: movzbl 0x94(%r8),%r10d
  0.63%  │  ...aa: add    $0x1,%rbp
 32.82%  │  ...ae: test   %eax,0x1765654c(%rip) ; global safepoint poll
 58.14%  │  ...b4: test   %r10d,%r10d
         ╰  ...b7: je     ...a2

11.0.2: 0.585 ± 0.014 ns/op [oops, regression]

  0.31%  ↗  ...70: movzbl 0x94(%r9),%r10d    
  0.19%  │  ...78: mov    0x108(%r15),%r11  ; reading the thread-local poll addr
 25.62%  │  ...7f: add    $0x1,%rbp          
 35.10%  │  ...83: test   %eax,(%r11)       ; thread-local safepoint poll
 34.91%  │  ...86: test   %r10d,%r10d
         ╰  ...89: je     ...70

11.0.2, -XX:-ThreadLocalHandshakes: 0.399 ± 0.048 ns/op [back to 8u perf]

  5.64%  ↗  ...62: movzbl 0x94(%r8),%r10d    
  0.91%  │  ...6a: add    $0x1,%rbp          
 34.36%  │  ...6e: test   %eax,0x179be88c(%rip) ; global safepoint poll
 54.79%  │  ...74: test   %r10d,%r10d
         ╰  ...77: je     ...62

I think this is largely visible mostly in tight loops like this one.

UPD: Hopefully, more details here.
