Interestingly enough - I installed the latest drivers from NVidia on windows (bootcamp/2010 - 13" MBP), and Stage3D performance dropped to 2-3 FPS just like on OSX.
Also, I think some games on OsX use vine/windows emulator - which is why they are slower. Not sure if Valve have native code or not for OsX, but - i also hope they bridge the gap with OsX a little more.
