Summary: Spacefill rendering bug

Initial Comment:
There is a bug with the spacefill rendering in the last
Jmol version 10.00.43. When zoom is high, balls are
crush against an imaginary pane.
Thank's for looking that.

This problem was fixed in prerelease 10.00.49 by going to a
32 big z-buffer depth. 
I now see that Nico's report was very good ... but I did not
recognize what was happening when he submitted. 
There is no true performance penalty for the orthogonal
projection when 'set perspectiveDepth off;'. However, there
is a perceived performance penalty because the atoms become
much larger ... so it takes longer to render.
The checked-in fix for 10.00.49 increases all screen
coordinates to 32-bit integers. Therefore, there is some
memory consumption increase. It also includes earlier
clipping when rendering large spheres and for cylinders,
significantly improving performance when zoomed in closely.

I just found this problem goes away if one sets the boolean 
variable "PerspectiveDepth" to be false. There is, however, 
a significant performance price for this.

This seems also a bug with Jmol v10 (official release). See 
this image : http://mw.concord.org/modeler/jmol_bug1.gif

When zooming in, the spacefill rendering suddenly 
malfunctions. Even if the zooming percentage just increases 
a little bit. In the attached image, the right screenshot 
is a molecule that has only a slightly bigger zooming 
percentage than the left one.

Increasing the MAXIMUM_ZOOM_PERCENTAGE constant in 
org.jmol.viewer.Viewer does not seem to improve.
