onPaint(Graphics graphics) lagging very bad

[TheAppFoundry 11]

My script is lagging very bad. The onPaint is being called rapidly as I assume is normal. I'm just trying to draw a rectangle but it lags very badly. I put the main thread to sleep in the onstart to see if there was anything interfering and it still lags. Any ideas?

  @Override
    public void onPaint(Graphics graphics) {
        log("OnPaint Called");

        graphics.drawRect(100,100,200,200);
        graphics.setColor(Color.CYAN);
        log("test after rect");
    }

 @Override
    public void onStart() {
        try {
            Thread.sleep(10000);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        log("On Start Called");

I wouldn't log anything in onPaint, and we recommend you use our sleep method instead of Thread.sleep()

I had this same problem when I was working on my first paint. The problem was exactly what pandemic mentioned, the logs in the paint function.

@pandemic, why y'alls threads over the normal java ones? If you don't mind me asking!

I also didn't think logs were that intensive?
