In case anyone else lands here via Google.
The slowdown I've seen is most severe when WebGL 2.0 is enabled.
So if you are in developer mode in Safari you can go to "Develop" -> "Experimental Features" -> untick "WebGL 2.0".
This will significantly improve performance if the page you're trying to view also supports webgl 1.0 (as the demo page posted by Bersaelor does).
Still nowhere near Firefox or Chome performance, but still a 20x improvement in frametime for me in Safari comparing with and and without WebGL 2.0 enabled.
