We support most MMTk GC plans in OpenJDK, such as `SemiSpace`, `Immix`, `GenImmix`, `StickyImmix`, `GenCopy`, `MarkCompact`, `MarkSweep`, `PageProtect`, and `NoGC`.
When you run with the OpenJDK build from previous steps, you can choose one of the plans by setting an environment variable `MMTK_PLAN`. In the following examples, we use
the generational immix plan, `GenImmix`.

Maybe we should mention how to find out the plan available by linking to mmtk-core code?

Maybe we can expose some information via, for example, java --version or -XX:ShowMmtkPlans, by printing out all plans supported by the OpenJDK binding, and/or all available plans in mmtk-core.
