Work_issues:  reduce awake applets, remove pull-down menu  |  
-----------------------------------------------------------+----------------
Changes (by kcrisman):

  * work_issues:  pop-out windows not working when too many applets open =>
                  reduce awake applets, remove pull-down
                  menu


Comment:

 Okay, here are my recommendations.
  * To ensure good memory usage for many systems, reduce the number of
 'awake' applets at any one time by one, to four.  Eventually this could be
 user-customizable, I suppose.
  * Remove the pull-down menu that says "3-D display size:" with different
 pixel sizes, as it either doesn't work or produces poor results.  In
 addition, at least in my testing on your server just now, I can't get the
 applet to sleep after I use that menu!  Pop-out still works in that case,
 though.
  * If it's not too hard, you could have the applets in main window sleep
 when you do a pop-out, except for the one you popped out (an instructor
 might want that smaller view immediately available after closing the pop-
 out window).

 Otherwise I'm fine.

 I think the pop-up windows are ok, actually.  It's a nice feature.  I have
 no problems making them when logged in.  The only issues are with the big
 resizing sometimes not working (but it's easy to find a size that does
 work) and that for some reason Command-W doesn't close the window.  Well,
 that doesn't work in MS Word, either, so no biggie.

 >  the twisted server appends html header information to the script files
 with MacOS FF when the user is logged in.  I would need to do more
 investigating to provide a detailed bug report.
 Like I said, I didn't have this problem, even with your server and Mac FF,
 but you might as well put the info of where you found this info on the
 ticket somewhere.  Are you saying it's only with Mac, and only with FF,
 that this extra info is appended?

 I'm going to test this on Safari again now, on an older Mac with FF, and
 then with IE and FF on my Windows Parallels.
