>From what I can tell, you're doing a no-no. You're using a Swing component to draw on (JPanel). This is a lightweight component and does not follow the same painting paradigm that heavyweight (AWT) components do. Simplified, AWT uses [i]paint(Graphics)[/i] and [i]update(Graphics)[/i], while Swing uses the protected [i]paintComponent(Graphics)[/i] method. Stick to [i]paintComponent(Graphics)[/i]. ;)
So my preliminary advise would be to change your [i]paint(Graphics)[/i] into [i]paintComponent(Graphics)[/i] and to comment out your [i]update(Graphics)[/i] method--it doesn't really do anything that [i]paint[/i] hasn't covered. Make sure you do not have any calls to [i]update[/i] or [i]paint[/i] explicitly in your code; use [i]repaint()[/i] exclusively. On an unrelated note, you may want to cache some of your geometry. At the moment, you recreate your grid at each repaint, which can be several times per second. Consider using either a BufferedImage or caching the used Shape.
