Hi, Vladimir, 

I think that one single JIT is good to pinpoint the problem. 
Why not just allow Graal-only there. You don’t need to run all tests for 
Graal-only hotspot. 

I understand that Graal itself needs to JIT itself. libgraal.so is AOT result 
of Graal itself, right? 
Is it easy to do that?  I can take a shot.  If you have the compiled graal, you 
will revert this commit. 

Thanks,
—lx
