Arch has a much longer dependencies list for qemu than Alpine does[0, 1]. Arch has 7 sub-packages to qemu, while Alpine has 82. This suggests to me that Arch's base package includes functionality that Alpine has placed into subpackages. Not all packages named "qemu" are created equal.
Also, without separating out the time spent waiting for the download, the author's choice of mirrors probably has a significant impact.
