There is absolutely no guarantee how often #step will actually be called. The given #stepTime is just a recommendation to the system.
I created an issue and uploaded a new method comment. http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7683
I am not sure this is the bug in Jan's morph. "setTime" is a minimum time, according to the Morphic white paper(*), but Jan's morph runs too fast.
A WatchMorph also has setTime = 1000, and its WatchMorph>>step is only called once a second.
Nevertheless, Andreas's suggestion is better than debugging Jan's method.
