The DraStic developers have commented that they don't gain much if anything because it runs on ARM [1]. It's just an efficient emulator. If/when it is open sourced as promised, it will run very fast on x86 systems too most likely.
In any case, DraStic is a completely different style of emulator compared to Yuzu. The Nintendo DS is nothing more than a pair of microcontrollers with (from a modern perspective) primitive 2D+3D acceleration hardware, whereas the Nintendo Switch is a multiprocessor system with a modern GPU and mulitasking operating system. The DS CPUs are actually quite far removed from modern smartphone chips, whereas the Switch chip should be mostly standard ARMv8. Things that apply to one don't necessarily apply to the other.
