Could it be changed?
In my tests, I was able to improve performance of the built-in
`directory-files-recursively' simply by disabling
`file-name-handler-alist' around its call.

See https://yhetil.org/emacs-devel/87cz0p2xlc.fsf <at> localhost/
(the thread also continues off-list, and it looks like there is a lot of
room for improvement in this area)
