Maybe you’re right, but to clarify bit what I heard is that musl is slower in heavy tasks, but still, maybe you’re right.
2 things I’m almost sure about are you that musl is lighter than glibc and that the allocator chimera Linux uses have better performance than the standard musl allocator.

I wonder why those optimizations are not part of generalized standard musl library. This (just thinking about it) indicates the optimizations by Chimera Linux are focused on specific performance improvements, while leaving something behind to reach that. What that is, I don’t know, maybe compatibility for edge cases or giving up performance for other tasks. I’m just a bit cautious with these statements.
