Ok, some debugging ideas:

Let's investigate if the number of times we're calling the storage engine code.

What would be useful information to have: Can you run
*
**show global status like '%handler%';*

Both for MariaDB and MySQL (both 5.5 versions and 10.4 version), before *and* after the problematic query.

(In total you should have 6 outputs, 4 for MariaDB (5.5 and 10.4 before and after the query) and 2 for MySQL (before and after the query).

We should compare how big of an increase we see for both servers. This may give us some direction if we see a big difference between the two. Additionally, if you can share the data in any way so I can try to reproduce the problem that may help speed things up.
