Try this simulation of a 1N34. When inputting voltage from 0 to 500 mV, the current only reaches 1.363 micro amps:
But germanium diodes are typically said to have a rough threshold around 300 mV, and all datasheets and plots of 1N34 diodes I can find on the internet show the current should be well into the milli amp range by the time its voltage is 500 mV, for instance:
I don't notice any glaring issues with the two Shottkey diodes, which are also low-threshold diodes and match my limited understanding. But the 1N34 seems way off...maybe it should just be deleted from that menu if fixing its simulation is too hard.

Thanks as always for such a great tool.
