Emacs has had an ahead of time compilation feature, "Native Compilation," since Emacs 28. Is this what you mean? Or is the Emacs 30 feature something different?

Emacs 28 has just in time compilation: the compilation happens lazily as a package is loaded. Ahead of time would means at installation time I guess.
