 Changing the doChart method so that it draws lines instead of a string
 will stop the bug occuring so it appears to be some combination of
 multithreading and drawString that causes this to appear.
 
 Hope this helps.

+I can reproduce the problem and did some debugging. It would appear

+Will take more time to debug
