It is the same on my system (OpenSuse 11.4, Firefox 16.0.2, Chromium 25.0). Generally I would not recommend setting 'spin' on by default with JSmol and protein structures in a large canvas because JSmol is about ten times slower than Jmol in most browsers in my experience. (At least it was several weeks ago.) With JSmol the speed is not only dependent from the CPU speed but also from the browser Javascript speed. Somewhat strange seems that spinning in Firefox is much slower (and stuttering) than free rotation with the mouse, which is quite fluent with your example protein containing only about 3500 atoms. Free rotation with the mouse is also even speedier in Chromium.
