Thanks Filip for the reply, but as I said in my original post, this is running on a virtual machine, so hardware isn't a factor. In addition, this only started when I began using JDK 6 instead of 5, and only continues to happen if I use JDK 6. If I use 5, there's no problem.
I will test this on another VM and a non-VM system to see if they behave the same way, but I would still appreciate more input if it's available.
