    On another note, I'm still not sure if there is a viable way to microbench code running on OpenJ9. It seems that there is still no official support from JMH, at least I'm getting warnings such as "This VM is not supported by JMH. The produced benchmark data can be completely wrong". Apparently it should work, however, my results for runs on OpenJ9 show (by a large margin) much higher variance compared to Hotspot which doesn't exactly inspire confidence.
