While testing jenkinsci/pipeline-groovy-lib-plugin#199, I ran into cases where
MemoryAssert.assertGC(..., false)was passing, but very slowly, because although there were soft references, they were cleared out prior to anOutOfMemoryErroroccurring, and so we skipped the code that failed whensoftErr != null.This PR adjusts the code to fail if
softErr != nullafter existing the initial loop, so that we also fail in this kind of case.I have not attempted to test this against other callers of this method, so this is just a draft PR.
Testing done
See the new test in jenkinsci/pipeline-groovy-lib-plugin#199.
