'''Chrome, Edge''' and '''Opera''' rotate molecules in JSmol about half as smoothly as Firefox. That is, they generate about half the number of frames/second as Firefox, so their performance is two-fold slower. | '''Chrome, Edge''' and '''Opera''' rotate molecules in JSmol about half as smoothly as Firefox.

'''Internet Explorer 11''' | '''Internet Explorer 11''' gives '''unacceptably slow''' rotation of molecules in JSmol, with a performance about one-fifth that of Firefox. | ||
:<small>Historical note: In 2014, Chrome outperformed Firefox. Changes in Chrome in 2015 reduced its performance for rotating molecules in JSmol. In December, 2015, a change in Chrome made it unable to rotate molecules in JSmol satisfactorily. As the mouse moved, the molecule remained fixed until the mouse movement stopped, whereupon the molecule jumped to the final position in one step. Bob Hanson was able to work around the change in Chrome with a modification to JSmol, but frames/second are still poorer than they were in Chrome in 2014.</small> | |||
