I am not sure about defaulting to '1' system-wide. Many users on high performance devices will never use wine / box64. It would be better to default to the safer '0' value.

It's quite important for xemu and rpcs3 . Dolphin seems best behaved

do you have metrics to support that assertion ?

No metrics but repeated test runs doing the same thing (loading lollipop chainsaw on rpcs3 on odin2mini) and where crashes happen with and without it being on from a cold boot.

I have a feeling it's related to the appimage container layer settings with how it tries to map fastmem ; but am not really sure. Would explain why it does it with rpcs3 but not dolphin

I guess Odin 2 Mini would be SM8550

yup sm8550 - I am running from NAS so will copy it locally and check if I get same result It might be a combination of things. My odin2 mini is only 8gb which likely is relevant.
