It most probably is.

I'd forget the whole of this discussion if I were you. Your teacher would probably agree with me that the most important thing is to be able to HEAR whether you are 'spacing the notes equally'.

Because, if you can hear that your playing is uneven, then just listening to it as you play it again will improve it. It's how we learn to walk – and talk! – after all. So, I'd say it's more important to be sensitive YOURSELF to what's coming out than to be worrying about the details of what your fingers do – at any rate to begin with.

This thread has (mostly) been about playing passages FAST. Though obviously I can't hear you play, what you say makes me think that that can wait:-)
