It's just a game of whack-a-mole, finding new segmentation faults and other bugs is quite easy when you know how to write good test code. Fixing the actual bugs less so. But it's fun and I do this for a living in the SapMachine team at SAP SE.

Besides fixing all the bugs and implementing my own profile viewer based on FirefoxProfiler (https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/20937-java-jfr-profiler).
