Maybe 5 years ago, I wrote a mancala game in C++ and Java. The minmax part was maybe 10% slower in Java.

The type of code makes a big difference in how it will perform relative to C++. You also have to be somewhat expert in each language. You can write arbitrarily slow code in any language. It's not easy to be sure that you're giving each language its best shot.
