DTLs aren't "computers" its just that some build a computer into it to create a decentral computer.

In its raw form a DTL does not compute an output but ofc all participants compute signatures and such stuff to validate input and reach consensus.

This is not a competition to a single computer as load is no distributed its the exact opposite. Everyone checks the rules of the system. (not to be confused with mining that does nothing, its just a puzzle to decide who can write the next block)



What is DTL? Did you mean DLT (distributed ledger technology)?
