Yeah, that article is an interesting read. Anyhow, should you feel the need for 
speed, we did include a preference (and a DOM API) for the target framerate in 
svg animations in Opera 10. The default is set to ~30fps, you can change the 
preference to higher (smoother animations but more resource-intensive) or lower 
(less smooth animations but less demanding processing).

The preference can be set through about:config (find it in the SVG section, or 
search for Target Framerate).
