For me, at this point, the biggest baggage is dealing with Oracle and funneling them money if you want an LTS JVM, alongside the shifting sands of their licensing rules. Unfortunately it can still be a bit of a wheel of fortune as to how well (if at all) something runs on OpenJDK.

Given that they are currently 99% the same code, that is very unlikely. Java 8 is long time ago.

Do you have any examples of programs that run well on Oracle JDK but not on OpenJDK?
