A question for any Android folks in the thread: how performant is Cuttlefish? Would I get good performance if I ran it in KVM on something like a Raspberry Pi 5? I've been thinking about a design that runs some robotic services natively, with a user-facing Android inside of a resource-constrained VM.

Android can run natively on x86_64. The ART folks spent quite a bit of time getting this to work.

A lot of our CI targets run android in this configuration.

Understood. I'm actually thinking about a product design for an aarch64-based industrial controller.

I'd want to run all of the machine interfaces directly on Linux, but am interested in using Android for everything user-facing. Could I get away with running Cuttlefish in KVM (on an aarch64 SOC) and get OK performance? I'm thinking that it could be a good way to keep the important stuff isolated.

Only one way to find out. :)
