    Description

      We shipped Ahead-of-Time compilation (the jaotc tool) in JDK 9, as an
      experimental feature. We shipped Graal as an experimental JIT compiler
      in JDK 10. We haven't seen much use of these features, and the effort
      required to support and enhance them is significant. We therefore
      intend to remove these features from Oracle builds as of JDK 16.

      We'll leave the sources for these features in the repository, in case
      any one else is interested in building them. We'll continue to build
      and ship JVMCI as an experimental feature in Oracle builds.
