There's a XX:+UnlockCommercialFeatures switch which enables features like the Java Flight Recorder. Other examples are the MSI Enterprise Installer and JRE Usage Tracking.

Since then, due to the bad press i suppose, Oracle has decided to open source most of these features (the others are retired). The Java Flight Recorder is not yet in the OpenJDK but AppCDS is already integrated in 10.
