I was wondering if someone knows what has faster performance speed ionic2 or nativescript? Does ionic2 still run on top of Cordova's webview? Or is it similar to nativescript?

DOM turns React Native into a highly performant framework. Difference 1: React Native inclines towards the native performance more than NativeScript. Difference 2: React Native uses the Virtual DOM and hence delivers faster UI rendering compared to NativeScript.
React Native places more emphasis on styling the components for each platform, to give it an even better native look and feel. NativeScript, on the other hand, is more of a “write once, run everywhere” proponent, although the components can also be styled individually to resemble those of native apps.
NativeScript is faster, but Flutter app development is preferred for more performant mobile apps.
The difference is minute. Flutter, NativeScript, Xamarin, and React Native: All of these platforms offer you real native apps (compiled from your code), so they provide better performance than Ionic does.
Ionic 2 still uses the webview. Things have gotten faster and newer devices are faster of course. Ionic is doing some great stuff, but you'll have a better performing application using NativeScript IMO. I don't have any benchmarks right now but I can assure you if someone does have benchmarks NativeScript will likely win on all fronts because it's not a webview. It's similar to react native and xamarin. As with most choices it depends on what you need and factors of time, cost, etc. All of these frameworks have pros and cons. Personally I settled on NativeScript since I didnt know react for react native, and i wanted to have native UI not native looking components in a webview. However for a quick prototype or an app that you might want to reuse as a PWA (progressive web app) ionic is a good choice in that regard. You can of course get code reuse with them all using angular and react in react native but the UI is different since its not shared with the web DOM. Hope that helps some.
So that answers your question, here is a xamarin and NativeScript comparison article from Burke Holland (works for telerik) but the tests seem very impartial as I've used both products and I am aware of the items he goes over https://www.nativescript.org/blog/details/nativescript-and-xamarin
