Thanks Bob for all your answers ! I'd need another life to test all your 
suggestions but here is what I did to solve my problem :
- I updated my applet to todays version. It did not solve the problem. But it 
requested less minimization/add hydrogens steps to work
- I used the filter '2d' settind with the load data script command, and it 
works beautifully. Minimization happens in the background (no wriggling shaking 
quaking molecule) which suits me perfectly.

I encountered another problem when I transferred back the model from Jmol to 
chemdoodle and then transferred it again from chemdoodle to Jmol : as 3D 
coordinates were included, when I loaded the new model in Jmol, the hydrogens 
were not calculated.
So I wrote a little script to zero the Z coordinates, and it now works as 
expected.

For the record, here is how I get the mol file from chemdoodle sketcher :

1st: I need to set an io object. I called it writeMOL...
writeMol = new ChemDoodle.io.MOLInterpreter();

2nd: my doodle to Jmol function looks like this :
function doodle2Jmol() {
        var molFile = writeMol.write(sketcher.getMolecule());
                                
        //Let's 2D the 3D !
        var tab = molFile.split("\n");
        for (i in tab) {
                if (tab[i].indexOf("   ")==0) { //that line has coordinates !
                        var tab2 = tab[i].split("   ");
                        tab2[3] = "0.0000";
                        tab[i]=tab2.join("   ");
                }
        }
        molFile = tab.join("\n");
        var spt = "load DATA \"model\"\n" + molFile + " \"model\" " + "filter 
'2D'";
        jmolScript(spt);                
}
