It’s a whole Linux kernel on the Mac that must run through the virtualization system, so it’s heavier weight than Linux docker.
Sounds like x86 binaries within an already running ARM Linux base image can run much faster.

At the moment the Docker desktop VM is setup to use qemu when running amd64 containers (processes) on the arm64 VM. Rosetta would replace that qemu binfmt setup, or maybe qemu-static wraps rosetta when available.
