Initializing A Virtual Machine

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more hardware processors, cause performance of operations comprising:

• executing an initialization process for initializing a virtual machine, wherein executing the initialization process for initializing the virtual machine comprises:
• generating an element loading schedule comprising a set of element identifiers that identify a set of elements for initializing the virtual machine arranged in a sequence corresponding to a traversal of the set of elements to transitive closure;
• initializing a background data area for loading elements for initializing the virtual machine;
• loading a first subset of elements, of the elements for initializing the virtual machine, on the background data area in accordance with the sequence of the set of element identifiers in the element loading schedule;
• initializing a runtime data area for loading elements for initializing the virtual machine;
• mapping the first subset of elements from the background data area to the runtime data area.

A system comprising:

• at least one device including a hardware processor;
• the system being configured to perform operations comprising:
• executing an initialization process for initializing a virtual machine, wherein executing the initialization process for initializing the virtual machine comprises:
• generating an element loading schedule comprising a set of element identifiers that identify a set of elements for initializing the virtual machine arranged in a sequence corresponding to a traversal of the set of elements to transitive closure;
• initializing a background data area for loading elements for initializing the virtual machine;
• loading a first subset of elements, of the elements for initializing the virtual machine, on the background data area in accordance with the sequence of the set of element identifiers in the element loading schedule;
• initializing a runtime data area for loading elements for initializing the virtual machine;
• mapping the first subset of elements from the background data area to the runtime data area.
