Yes, I suspect they do have a different security for localHost. No doubt
people have tried to weasel in on that port to extract information that is
really local, not remote.
I do think that the signed applet is the way to go with any local
application. It's not just file location. It's all the other fun stuff, like
saving the state, writing PNG and PovRay files, creating 3D PDF files now.
If you are doing a local installation, use the signed applet.
I guess I've never noticed the delay. I use the signed applet all the time.
Where was it that you saw it before the tests? Was it in response to a hover
event?
Obviously you don't really want to be firing scripts at the applet 20 times
per second. It seems to me a better design would be to use the applet's own
Jmol script to do that.
The 200 ms is per script, yes. I think that's not really necessary. Let me
take a look...
But in what I have uploaded to
http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-11/Jmol-11.jar
I have reduced that to a 50-ms delay. I guess it's not really any
significant overhead to reduce the time of that. All it is doing is looking
at a Vector to see if a new script has arrived.
