That depends on the implementation.
and what details causes it much slower.
A language feature that slows all implementation is the dynamic name/slot binding and resolution. Any implementation can be made faster by restricting the dynamism (which makes the imlementaion one of a subset of Python).

There is no 'the' runtime. Whether or not there even *is* a runtime, as usually understoold, is a matter of the implementation.
This is an important aspect of the language.
It is an aspect of each implementation, of which there are now more than one.
