Gbarunner2 is a GBA hypervisor for DS (like Nintendont for GC on Wii). There is a thread if you want more info.

TWLMenu now called DSImenu, sure they do work for most part, but still has bugs here and there, while a flashcard doesn't.
I have a very old R4iDS with the "latest" wood (2013) and it runs 99% no problems. DSImenu on the other has issues with AP patch, sound issue, soft reset issues, etc.

You better use virtual console for playing gba games, or an emulator in 3ds mode

A virtual console inject and the gbarunner2 do exactly the same. Run gba roms using DS Mode (that's what the arm7 is there). So either VC or Gbarunner2 are executive the gba roms native. While the emulator is doing that emulating.
So in the end is better stick with the VC or the Gbarunner2 that's up to the player.

But gbarunner2 is locked to nds-mode processing power afaik, it would be better to use gba-mode that 3ds has(in virtual console)

The VC uses the agb_firm which is exactly the same as the twl_firm. You can check it on, 3dbrew.org
So when you run a GBA rom using either a vc inject or the gbarunner2, you will be playing the gba rom like if you are playing them using a DS.
It boils down to what you like more, i like more the VC inject method, because i like to have my games in the 3ds menu (same reason why i use nds forwarder for my r4).

Good to know, is game compatibily pretty much the same?

Well, then gba inject seems to have a much better compatibility

Maybe so, but from what I know GBARunner2 is far from perfect.
