Also, genesis (Universe::genesis()?), is a VM detail that may be unclear. Do
we mean:
"
Returns the CPU time used by all garbage collection threads.
This includes time for all driver threads, workers, VM operations
on the VM thread, and the string deduplication thread (if enabled).
Therefore the value can be non-zero even if no garbage collection cycles have
occurred.
This method returns {@code -1} if the platform does not support this operation,
or if called during shutdown.
