Note, however, that dired in XEmacs is pretty inefficient.
With
the current dired, most of the time is spent doing an "indent-region"
(and not obtaining the actual directory contents).
No, it's not. We've already been over this. Please rebuild your
XEmacs without error checking and you should get a massive speed
increase in dired.
To speed things up, try applying the appended patch to dired.el (I
just submitted this to the dired folks).
That patch created problems in the past.
