Programs compiled under xenix run slower under unix?

I was wondering if programs compiled under unix and then moved to
a unix system would run slower than if they had been compiled
under the unix system.  I'm not asking if a program will run
slower or faster on a unix or xenix system.  What I'm asking really
is "Does the process of translating xenix programs on a unix system
slow the program down?"  I was going to give someone a program I 
had compiled on a xenix system, but he refused it saying that he
wanted to compile it on his system (unix) because the program
would run slower.  It this true?  Thanx in advance.
