I did the analysis earlier for `directory-files-recursively'. See
https://yhetil.org/emacs-devel/87cz0p2xlc.fsf <at> localhost/

Just to be sure, here is perf data for
(ignore (let ((gc-cons-threshold most-positive-fixnum)) (benchmark-progn (find-lisp-find-files "/home/yantar92/.data" ""))))

Disabling `file-name-handler-alist' cuts the time more than 2x.
