Anything that uses cairo? I would like to make some comparisons and it would help if I can recreate the same animations. (I did some work with cairo and python, but no animation. I used cairo for animations together with GTK, sure this was faster but these applications are only made for the animation, just a simple drawing loop. Pharo of course has much more that happens in between).
