Higher dps will win out, but if someone spikes above you in hate briefly, you will have to wait longer before you swing again and regain aggro. Also if the mob bounces around the group, missed swings (out of range—not missed) will represent more lost hate than with faster weapons. It stands to reason, DPS being equal, faster is probably easier to maintain aggro with.
I don't know how crits/crips factor into things though. Do you get extra hate for crits? If not I could see a slow 2h technically doing more dps in a parse, but having worse hate properties.
