206.0. "Severe slowdown opening large notes conferences" by ALFSS1::oro_dial2_port2.oro.dec.com::GARABO (CyberNeuroSurgeon General) Sun May 04 1997 20:02

When I was using NETNOTES in WINDOWS-95, I experienced a severe slowdown whenever I opened a 
conference (such as IBMPC-95) that had a very large seen map. If I cleared the seen map 
(e.g., create a new entry for the same notesfile), it would start up fast. When a did a SET 
SEEN, it would take on the order of 2-4 minutes before the operation completed.

	I've recently moved to NT Workstation 4.0, and the problem went away completely, even 
though I copied the same notebook from WIN95!

    Im trying to learn to use net notes, and I see exactly the same problem
    on Win 95. It takes many minutes to open any of the conferences I
    need. This is totally unuseable to me. 
    
    Is there a fix for this?

    	I have NetNotes installed on my 120MHz W95 laptop, and access to
    	the entries [through a router, even] was adequate when using a
    	local [IE, stored on laptop] NOTEBOOK.NOT file.
    
    	The thing that slowed it down was moving the .NOT file to an NT
    	file server and then trying to access the same entries over a
    	28.8K RAS connection.
    
    	Where do you keep your .NOT file, and what's the size of the file
    	right now?
