Hello Martin I don't think there are any limits on the number of atoms Jmol can load. There is, however, a limit in how much memory Java is allocated to use.
Check out http://pqs.ebi.ac.uk/pqs-doc/macmol/1sva.mmol for information on how to give more memory to Jmol. I have just opened Jmol with 1 GB memory and succesfully loaded http://pqs.ebi.ac.uk/pqs-doc/macmol/1sva.mmol which is 66 MB file size and contains some 959000 atoms. It took several minutes to load, though. And the program can't be said to be very responsive, but I guess that's because it's running off virtual memory on disk (my computer has only 512 MB RAM and I had several other applications open). So, I'd say if you have enough RAM and you configure command line options, you can do what you want. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
