Microsoft could be internally testing the Windows Subsystem for Android on a variety of x86 and ARM hardware as evidenced by new Geekbench entries. The ARM results show scores equivalent to that of a Snapdragon 865 while we see some performance regression on x86 hardware, which is likely using Intel's Bridge Technology. A listing of the Amazon Appstore Preview has also popped up on the Microsoft Store.

They should try it with M1 so I can know how powerful 11 will be.
These articles are getting annoying. A Windows subsystem doesn't have a certain set "performance", the performance is based on the hardware of the machine.
It should be pointed out that the 20 core part has a higher multi core performance than even the mighty iPhone 13 pro with new a15 silicon, so not too shabby at all, as no snapdragon chip can compare.
Can it be that this result is early silicon that isn't clocked very highly, and is also running on an alpha pre-release subsystem, that is it self running on a beta OS? And so performance probably will get better, especially on the single core front?
What's the comparison here? An A15 has 4 efficiency cores and 2 high performance ones, so not even equivalent to a 4-core cpu, I don't think it's equivalent at all...
Also, the 20-core score being higher, you mean windows 11 benchmarks somewhere vs Apple Silicon on Windows 11? Would be interesting to look at that... else, the benchmarks of the A15 (roughly a fifth of a 20 core cpu):
Single core score: 1700+ (a whole lot more)
Multicore score: 4700 (not far at all).
