Why is the performance impact of the sandbox with Intel code only 1% while the AMD and ARM code 7%? Is it just because they haven't focused much on optimizing for those or any other reason? I would expect them to at least focus more on ARM, especially if they are porting it to Android.

As quoted on the article, the segmentation technique it uses is only available on x86.
