;;; early-init.el --- Early initialization file for Emacs -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
;;; Commentary:
;; Emacs 27.1 introduced early-init.el, which is run before init.el, before
;; package and UI initialization happens, and before site files are loaded.
;;; Code:
;; A big contributor to startup times is garbage collection. We up the gc
;; threshold to temporarily prevent it from running, then reset it later by
;; enabling `gcmh-mode'. Not resetting it will cause stuttering/freezes.
(setq gc-cons-threshold (* 100 1024 1024)) ;; Make startup faster by reducing the frequency of garbage collection. The default is 800 kilobytes. Measured in bytes. Will (and should) be decreased again at the end.
;; make UTF-8 the default coding system:
(set-language-environment "UTF-8")
;; `set-language-enviornment' sets `default-input-method', which is unwanted
(setq default-input-method nil)
