Handling models that exceed OSB explorer limitations #584

Closed JustasB closed 6 years ago

This is related to: https://github.com/openworm/org.geppetto/issues/583

I have a link to a 1200 cell OSB Explorer model that takes 5+ minutes to load (I can see the spinner), but ultimately crashes. This happens in Chrome and Edge. In FF, I only see the spinner, but the project does not load within writing this post (I'll update this issue if I get a crash error).

Here's the link: http://www.opensourcebrain.org/projects/miglioreetal14_olfactorybulb3d?explorer=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2FJustasB%2FMiglioreEtAl14_OlfactoryBulb3D%2Fmaster%2FNeuroML2%2FNetworks%2FBulb_600MC_593GC_OdorIn.net.nml

This is probably because the model is too large, or otherwise exceeds some limitation.

Ideally, users would receive a warning before Geppetto attempts to load a model that is too large. I don't know which limitation the model is exceeding, but maybe there is a way for the Explorer to assess the size of the model before loading and then show a message that the model will not be loaded.

In my particular use case, I would like to know what the limit is and then share the largest model that is within the limit.
