Load reference from Object[], check is generated via "and" operation if compressed oops is turned off:
  0.02% │ 0x00007fbf007c985d: mov 0x8(%r10),%r11
  4.79% │ 0x00007fbf007c9861: movabs $0x4000000000000000,%r8
  0.14% │ 0x00007fbf007c986b: and %r8,%r11
  0.16% │ 0x00007fbf007c986e: test %r11,%r11
              │ 0x00007fbf007c9871: jne 0x00007fbf007c98be
              │ 0x00007fbf007c9873: mov 0x18(%r10),%rsi

it is possible simply do "test" in this case. if compressedOops is turned on - the code do just "test":
  0.16% │ 0x00007f51ac7c8f13: mov 0x8(%r12,%r10,8),%r8d
  5.04% │ 0x00007f51ac7c8f18: mov %r8d,%r11d
              │ 0x00007f51ac7c8f1b: test $0x40000000,%r11d
              │ 0x00007f51ac7c8f22: jne 0x00007f51ac7c8f7a
              │ 0x00007f51ac7c8f24: mov 0x10(%r12,%r10,8),%r10d

PS. there is a very minor deficiency on compressed oops case too - moving value to r11 that is not necessary and spoil 1 register.
