With the upcoming Android 16 Terminal VM powered by the Android Virtualisation Framework (AVF), it should also be possible to run Docker in an Aarch64 Debian VM similar to WSL2 or ChromeOS crostini.

However, this may still be constrained by OEMs restricting access to AVF or by battery enhancements that make it virtually unusable.

This is one of the things that may make me serious consider another Android tablet (especially one with a nice keyboard+touchpad accessory connected via e.g.: Pogo pins). It would definitely be a game changer, and a high-end Android device could completely replace my current hybrid Chromebook.

How close would this be to native performance? Will it use any hardware features to reduce the emulation overhead if both the host and the guest use the same architecture?
