G'day,

[ again, apologies if this has already been covered ]

- Second is loading the Jmol applet. Takes quite a while too, and
it's longer from a web server than from a local file. Only the first
time, then it's much quicker (reads form the browser's cache, it
seems).

On older browsers with 1.1 JVMs (IE+MSFT JVM & NS4.* on Win32 & MacOS 9) it comes from the browser's cache.


On systems with the Sun Java Plug-in (including MacOS X) the plug-in
maintains a separate cache for downloaded applets.

This is correct. However, special PARAM tags must be included in the APPLET tag to make use of the Java2 Plug-In cache; the default is to use the browser cache. For more info see <http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.3/docs/appletcaching.html>. The ability to version JARs in the Plug-In cache is particularly useful.


Regards,
Chris.
