ANSI syntax slower than old style?

Hello,

Are there times when the new, ANSI syntax for joins is slower than the old style or can I assume that ANSI joins are just as fast if done properly?

ANSI Joins
SELECT * from DEPT D
INNER JOIN EMPLOYEES E
ON (D.DEPT_ID = E.DEPT_ID)
WHERE D.DEPT_NAME = 'Human Resources'

Old Style Joins
SELECT * FROM DEPT D, EMPLOYEES E
WHERE D.DEPT_ID = E.DEPT_ID
AND D.DEPT_NAME = 'Human Resources'

Thanks.
