High usage of memory Ram and Problem with the Share link feature about icn3d

[jiywang3]

The high memory usage is probably due to the surface creation. Try to do that as the last step.

I fixed the share link issue. The '&' in the command string caused the problem.

Thank you for your bug report. Please let me know if you see any problems.

Thank you for your response. However, we still face issues even without the surface representation. Here are the steps I did before it crashed (Google Chrome, Mac OSX)

1. Open iCn3D
2. Load '7DDD' PDB structure
3. select chain 7DDD_A
4. Color selection to color 1
5. select chain 7DDD_B
6. Color selection to color 2
7. select chain 7DDD_C
8. Color selection to color 3
9. Open "View Sequence and Annotations", detailed view
10. Select a single residue A
11. Change style to 'Sphere'
12. Change color to some color
13. Select another single residue B
14. Change style to 'Sphere'
15. Change color to another color
    This is where it crashed, though it has crashed earlier or later (at random steps). Even without coloring the chains, and going directly to the residue selection step, it was found to crash.

Wow, that's such a memory leak. It's related to the dispose() function in three.js (v103.0). I have to call "renderer.renderLists.dispose();" to get the memory finally cleared. It should be fixed in production! Thanks a lot for the bug report.
