Description
This is observed on Nimbus L&F on all OSes, with the current 6u4b02 pit build. 
1) Tooltip does not have a bottom and left border around it. 
2) Insets around the tooltip text are too large making the tooltip appear huge. 
Screen short is attached for reference.  The screen shot also compares as to how it looks on GTK L&F with Nimbus theme.
