javax.swing.Timer slowdown in Java7u40

Question

Invoke javax.swing.Timer#start() same time,

7u25 is not problem.

but 7u40 is big problem.

Too laggy invoke ActionListener#actionPerformed. (basically same time invoke u25)

Totally different move between u25 and u40. (I use Windows 8) I bug report but still not add bug tracking system. Oracle crushing swing apps?

public class TimerProblem extends JComponent {

        int red = 0;

        TimerProblem(final long startMs) {
                setPreferredSize(new Dimension(10, 10));

                Timer t = new Timer(16, new ActionListener() {

                        @Override
                        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                                red = (int)(System.currentTimeMillis() - startMs) % 255;
                                repaint();
                        }

                });
                t.setInitialDelay(1000);
                t.start();
        }

        @Override

                g.setColor(new Color(red, 255 - red, 0));
                g.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
        }

                JFrame f = new JFrame();
                Container c = f.getContentPane();

                c.setLayout(new GridLayout(10, 10));
                long startMs = System.currentTimeMillis();
                for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
                        c.add(new TimerProblem(startMs));
                }
                f.pack();

Finally I write DIY repaint management class .. :(
