Description
New testcase runtime/jni/checked/TestLargeUTF8Length.java introduced in jdk-24+14, requires 9Gb of heap and will fail on most Adoptium nodes, on most platforms.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with test/hotspot/jtreg/runtime/jni/checked/TestLargeUTF8Length.java, especially line 67, and run the testcase under the memory limits of a typical Adoptium node. Compare its heap requirement with the reported 9 GB allocation and verify that the adjusted test passes without exhausting available memory.
