Eran, you may be interested to see

There I concluded that 99.9% of published PDB files will fit in the 
default java memory and display in Jmol.

There may be problems with deallocating memory when you load multiple 
PDB files in the same browser session, especially on Apple -- I'm not 
sure. But you can try quitting the browser (so Java is also quit), 
then restarting it. I think this frees all java memory so you get a 
fresh start.

Jaime Prilusky's PDB file size analysis server is online. From it, 
you can find out how many PDB files exceed a specified size, and 
their PDB codes. Let me know if you are interested.
