The first page load took about a minute and even a reload took more than 30 seconds. Loading '1deh' as an example structure from the PDB took also about 35 seconds. So total time until a structure was loaded was about 60 to 90 seconds. For comparison: loading the same entry with our Jena3D viewer (http://jenalib.fli-leibniz.de/cgi-bin/3d_mapping.pl?CODE=1deh&APPLET=html5) took about 10 seconds or 5 seconds as a reload. Is the Jena3D viewer also much slower if you try it, indicating that there might be a bottleneck in data transfer rate?
Applying functions also was quite slow: a) Presets->Protein1 ~7 sec b) Presets->Protein2 ~60 sec c) Presets->Protein3 ~7 sec Rendering changes in the Jena3D viewer are applied almost instantaneously. So it is not JSmol speed in general that causes this. Maybe the server is contacted before issuing any of these commands? I tried to find out which JSmol version is used, but the popup menu wasn't available. Intentionally, I would guess. In this case it would be nice to add the JSmol version info to the "About viewer" info. I noticed some unusual features of the pulldown menus: 1) The menu stays open while commands are issued already. 2) In the 'Representation' menu there are multiple options selectable within a single row (on, off, only). Number 1) is problematic because the user doesn't have any feedback that his choice was accepted and the program is doing something. This often results in a second or third click, making things worse. Currently this behavior might be especially disturbing because of the long time until an action is finished and because apparently many features aren't functional yet. But even without this I am not sure if it is really a good idea. Since the application interface seems to be targeted at beginners, apparently trying to reduce the complexity of the JSmol popup menu, number 2) might also not be a very good idea. I fear this will be rather confusing than helpful. Although it helps to save space or a secondary menu level.
