No there is no performance difference. LibreELEC only needs approx 250MB RAM for even 4K / HD Audio video streaming.
The extra 1GB RAM will make a difference when using Android on the Play2. Everything will be slightly snappier.
The biggest improvement with any OS is a Wireless remote. Then you will get a better response and feedback from any device.
You need to use a Samsung EVO, Sandisk or Lexar Class 10 U1 microSDHC card for optimal LE performance running from a SD card.
Those have superior 4K - random R/Write performance needed for LibreELEC Kodi.
Flashing to internal eMMC (there is no NAND on S905's) will show a small improvement vs a fast SD card. Not really much for day to day use.
