Yes, I suspect that 266Mhz is a little slow
(I'm not just trying to lay the blame somewhere else ... but the biggest
issue is relatively poor Java graphics performance)

The numbers are there just during this test period.
The first number is the time to repaint the most recent frame.
The second number is the average time during the most recent set of
rotations (gets reset each time you MousePressDown).
Windows has a relatively low resolution clock, so the first number will
jump between 0 & 50, but the second number, the average, is correct.

I think there is a good chance that this is your issue.
I would try the following on the command line
1. use / instead of \
-d c:/foo/bar
2. double quote each of your parameters ... as in
-d "c:\foo\bar"
3. doubling the backslashes ... as in
-d: "c:\\foo\\bar"

Please do!
