If you run into a `No module named 'distutils.spawn'` error when executing
`./configure`, please try `python3 -m pip install --upgrade setuptools` or
`sudo apt install python3-distutils -y`.
For more information, see https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/30189.

The `-j4` option will cause `make` to run 4 simultaneous compilation jobs which
may reduce build time. For more information, see the
[GNU Make Documentation](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Parallel.html).
