'''JSmol''' has proven quite satisfactory for interactive displays of most macromolecules in Proteopedia, and is the default. This avoids the need for Protepedia users to [[Installing_and_enabling_Java|install and enable Java]]. The Java applet Jmol [[User:Eric_Martz/JSmol_Notes#JSmol_is_slower_than_Jmol|performs much faster]], but this enhanced performance is not needed unless the model contains >~30,000 atoms, or multiple larger models (see [[NMR]]). | '''JSmol''' has proven quite satisfactory for interactive displays of most macromolecules in Proteopedia, and is the default.
