You can see the implementation, the source code is open.

Multithreading primitives are implemented differently on different
systems since the underlying OS APIs are different. There are no
performance guarantees. That said, I would not expect drastic
performance differences caused specifically by the mutex type. I would
recommend you to profile your code to see where the performance
difference comes from.
