That doesn't really explain this behavior at all. The display resolution shouldn't have any effect on dolphins performance if he's setting the IR manually, especially such a drastic one.

The only explanation I can think of is that Dolphin's output is a filtered texture, and filtering does have a bigger performance impact if you're filtering the same image on a screen with four times the pixels. Running it in low-res mode gives you a 1440x900 image with no filtering (aside from what Dolphin does itself), so that's much less work.
