A new-groupname
option has been added tokeytool -genkeypair

option.
See JDK-8213400 - New Feature: Apache Santuario Library Updated to Version 2.1.4

has been introduced.
This new system property sets the pool size of the internalDocumentBuilder

system property used in Apache Santuario and has the same default value of 20.

as specified by theloadFromXML
method.
