No, it is ok for old movement. Sinusoidal shaped graph could be caused by many things, like some minor wear on seconds wheel pinion, tired material of mainspring... Who knows what exactly...
Generally, I prefer to change mainspring whenever I have a chance Image

maybe the mainspring is the issue, I want to replace it but a silver one was inside and I have a blue one. so I decided to use the old one and to order the correct one and if it arrives, I will change it. unlucky the ones Yoda was selling already gone

Try with blue one in the meantime, you can notice difference anyway, that can be a good clue...
