The performance critical parts of dolphin are native code, even on android, so realistically have no overhead. Much of the "slowness" are driver issues (which for the most part the nvidia drivers are great, so don't affect this), the arm64 JIT sometimes being less efficient than the equivalent x86_64 (which is the case even with no android), and power/thermal limits (which a SBC will likely not hit as much as a small phone form factor).
So don't expect things to be magically faster on the same hardware just because you don't run android.
