One thing I always do is check in about 4.45 for the first fligth to London and go the security point on the Aer Lingus side of the airport which opens at 5 otherwise you could be waiting for 20 mins or more no problem.
Huh, I've gone through dublin three times in the last five months and nothing was especially horrid about security - most of my flights were in the afternoon, however (split between aer lingus and BMI). Ten minutes or so. Have had MUCH more problems with security at LHR for the UK and Ireland flights - those lines can be nightmares.
