Description

GraalVM is openjdk based. It should be able to run Daffodil as it can run Scala code.

It features mechanism to output native binaries which massively increases startup speed.

It supposedly also makes scalac and other scala things run faster than they do on ordinary openjdk.

We should evaluate it.
