Hi @jatin-bhateja, sorry for a spurious comment but I wish to ask about the 
status of 
[lworld+vector](https://github.com/openjdk/valhalla/tree/lworld%2Bvector) in 
project Valhalla - It makes use of Unsafe.makePrivateBuffer and 
finishPrivateBuffer, which is outdated in the current Value Objects model (the 
larval bit will be gone).  I just wonder if I can proceed with the removal here 
https://github.com/openjdk/valhalla/pull/1593, or if I should keep these legacy 
APIs for further vector work. (FYI we can probably migrate to 
Unsafe.allocateInstance to do the same, as in Method handles)
