It runs slow on ARM6 devices, unfortunately.  Performance will improve as the project progresses, but it won't happen over night.  It will take a lot of little optimizations over time.

In the meantime there are a few thing I believe you can disable to get a little performance boost.

1. go to skins >Virtual gamepad settings
And disable "Display FPS"

2. Go to change and change it to "mupen64plus-ae-touch-(whatever size you want to use)"

3. Go into the audio settings and disable the audio plugin.

4. Go to Settings->RSP change it to "librsp-hle-nosound.so".  Will give a slight performance improvement if the sound is already disabled anyway.

5. Go to Settings->Video->Configure, and disable "Stretch Screen"

6. Go to Settings->Video->Configure, disable "Auto Frameskip", and increase "Max Frameskip" (play around with different values to find what works best)
