You might verify that the actionPerformed() method of the Timer's 
designated ActionListener is being called with the Timer's nominal 
period. Using start(), stop(), restart(), setDelay() or setRepeats() in 
a subclass are all potential culprits. How do the subclasses deal with 
network latency in the normal course? Is your network experiencing 
unusual delays, as Daniele suggests?
