Well, in the code Knute supplied in his original post
the timer isn't started until after the call to setVisible(true).
The timer is a repeating timer - it continues to fire events
at the delay rate. I guess that at a rate of more than one per
second the ThreadQueue (or whatever the controlling mechanism)
thinks there is work remaining to be done and will not allow the
EDT to shut down. Conversely, at a rate less than one per second
this mechanism thinks all work is done and the EDT is allowed
to expire.

Shrug.

public class test extends JFrame {
   public test() {
     Timer timer = new Timer(1000,event -> {});
     setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
     setSize(400,300);
     setVisible(true);
     timer.start(); }

   public static void main(String... args) {
     EventQueue.invokeLater(() -> new test()); }}
