Description of the change
Run the bootstrap script on different threads in parallel:
- apm installation runs in parallel to installing script/ dependencies
- using JOBS env variable node-gyp is parallelized
Benefits
Running this on a computer with multiple cores gives a good speedup.
Even in the CI with a processor with only 2 cores.
For example, on Linux the bootstrap time is reduced from 7:30 to 3:41, which is 203% faster (2X).
Verification
The CI passes. This is tested locally as well.
