In my benchmarking, for large dired buffers, using 'regexp-opt' provides around a 3x speedup in omitting. 'regexp-opt' takes around 5 milliseconds, so to avoid slowing down omitting in small dired buffers we cache the return value. Since omitting is now 3x faster, increase 'dired-omit-size-limit' by 3x. Also, document 'dired-omit-size-limit' better. * doc/misc/dired-x.texi (Omitting Variables): Document 'dired-omit-size-limit'. * etc/NEWS: Announce increase of 'dired-omit-size-limit'. * lisp/dired-x.el (dired-omit--extension-regexp-cache): Add. (dired-omit-regexp): Use 'regexp-opt'. (Bug#69775) (dired-omit-size-limit): Increase and improve docs.
