Comment (by kcrisman):

 [http://wiki.jmol.org/index.php/JSmol_pros_and_cons The Jmol wiki] says
 > HTML5 is significantly slower than Java. For large systems it is
 strongly advised to use the set platformSpeed setting (or allow the user
 to set that). Smaller molecules (<10,000 atoms) are handled quite well.
 Large molecules (>20,000 atoms; see table at right) may be slow to load
 and process.
 Also note it says IE is "unworkably slow" with the jsmol option, though I
 don't know how authoritative this is.

 At the very least, maybe we need a little documentation for this
 somewhere, in addition to setting this.  I don't think we want to get in
 the business of checking whether a plot has transparency and then sending
 a message to Jmol...
