Hi,

The Graal webpage says that the Graal VM is a modified version of Hotspot that uses Graal as the compiler instead of C1 or C2.

Can someone explain at a high-level which components of Hotspot are intact and which ones have been modified?
I see a number of API routines relating to hotspot (com.oracle.graal.hotspot.server).
