I do think it would be slower overall because system processes/launching are done very differently in Android, plus of course the overhead of the wrappers and the occasional headache of replicating NDI. QtDalvik as such to me makes no sense - you don't get the advantages of either Qt or Dalvik, more like just the drawbacks of both.
Whats funny is that if the Dalvik port were to happen apps would probably run faster as Android doesn't kill anything and lets them pile up in memory.
