By the platform choice of 10.6, did you mean to say that this bug only reproduces on 10.6?

Which canvas animations are you referring to? Also, since canvas animations are always driven by the firing of dom timers, the only thing I could imagine WebKit doing improperly that would cause this behavior would be giving timers sooner than requested. Furthermore, firing timers sooner would only cause this issue if the animation code of the site relied on getting the timers at the requested intervals - which is something that's not guaranteed. Thus, my guess is that the animation code of the site is the reason for the "faster rate". Though, if we're also consistently firing off timers faster than requested, then that sounds like a legitimate issue to investigate.
