Large Negative Number in Column Chart

Question

When using a large negative number (eight digits or more) from hierarchical data in a column chart, the browser FREEZES. Has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions on how to fix? See the sample code below.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
        //hierarchical data.
        [Bindable]      
        private var input:Array = [
            { xfield:"World", value:-50000000, children:[
            { xfield:"Asia", value:15, children:[ { xfield:"Bhutan", value:1 }, { xfield:"Singapore", value:5 }, { xfield:"Thailand", value:17 }, { xfield:"India", value:10 }, { xfield:"Japan", value:15 }, { xfield:"Nepal", value:5 }]},
