Experiment selection:
  Instruments:   [allocation, runtime]

  Virtual machines:  [default]

This selection yields 20 experiments.
<Output from dry run>
Starting experiment 1 of 20: {instrument=allocation, benchmarkMethod=dlsRemove, 
vm=default, parameters={addSize=100}}à The worker exited without producing 
data. It has likely crashed. Run with --verbose to see output.


I've inserted println statements in the beginning my @BeforeExperiment and 
@Benchmark methods, I marked them here as <Output from dry run>. 

I checked the command line for the child (worker) process and tried to run it 
manually in the command line, then I get this exception:

I’m not familiar with Criterion, but you may want to take a look at JMH. Caliper is currently not actively being developed; there’s newer code than the 1.0-beta-2 at head from work that was done in 2018, but we haven’t made an open source release with that and it would require some additional work to get it to that point.

@cgdecker thanks for the heads up. I’ll try to get JMH working.
