It could be a concurrency issue, or you might be running other things on the Event Dispatch Thread (EDT) that you shouldn't, there might be other demands on the system (e.g., from the video recording software), or you simply might not have enough computing power to run it faster.

You're timer simply calls draw.  Also, 1ms is really too fast, and will 
cause more harm than good. You should aim for closer to 30hz->60hz.  Try 
around 33ms timer.

Ideally, the "work" for your animation should be done in the timer 
handler too (so that your state changes on the timer, not just a redraw).
