Set to 4 workers at the start to make compilation at least as fast as
possible: my laptop has 4 cores so it'll just slow it down until early
compilation is done, while my desktop can still keep going as it has 8
threads. In config.org this is setup correctly so the rest of the
config (which is the much larger part) uses a system dependent number
of cores.
Personal theme doesn't work on such a low transparency (I chose
colours that are less vibrant and poppy, going for a low-key theme)
hence set the alpha higher.
From Emacs 27+, early-init.el provides control over stuff earlier than
UI load allowing for fine grained control over the load up. Here you
setup stuff such that Emacs loads this code most eagerly.
In this case, I set gc-cons-threshold to the highest value to
aggressively load the config without care for garbage collection, as
well as restricting standard package use. Along with that are some
basic UI things so that I don't have to deal with them even in load
up such as menu-bars and the alpha.
As this code is not error prone at all and is loaded before init.el
these choices allow for an easier debugging experience as well.
