Suggestion:
We used to have the following documentation for setting up for the metronome gc policy, but it was removed.

This step must be completed one time only:
When the installation process is completed, you must change the user account to allow access to high-resolution timers. Run the following command as root user:
chuser "capabilities=CAP_NUMA_ATTACH,CAP_PROPAGATE" <username>
where <username>
is the non-root AIX user account.
Note: The user must log out and log back in for the change to take effect.
This step must be completed in every shell before starting Java™:
Set the AIXTHREAD_HRT environment variable to true. This environment variable allows a process to use high-resolution timeouts with clock_nanosleep(). You must set this environment variable each time the process is started. On the command line, type:
AIXTHREAD_HRT=true
This setting can be added to a user's .profile so that it is set each time the user logs in. Add the following line to the user .profile file:
export AIXTHREAD_HRT=true
