Thanks to the people on the Switchroot Discord I was able to compile and test the newest Android Pie for the Switch already Mainly to find bugs (already found a few) but also to test how well it's running in general.
I gotta say the performance has increased a lot! Pie feels a lot snappier than Oreo, Apps load and install faster, animations are smoother, the JoyCons are finally working while attached to the console and even better than before! Also Emulators seem to run a bit better, here's an example:
Anyways, just wanted to show how well it's running as of now I also tried Mario Kart Wii which ran at around 40FPS tho crashes when you try to play it again after closing which is odd. There are also some HDMI issues still which need to be figured out but the ROM is coming along nicely so far!

Runs flawless! Android is super snappy and fast too! Also tried Nintendo 64 which also ran flawless, Mario Kart Wii ran at ~40FPS.
I'm excited already! @switchroot_org pic.twitter.com/kn9o7pPntJ
