Any OneNote gurus out there? I've learned a lot about it in the past couple of years, but the biggest letdown is how sluggish it can be. Here's the situation...

I've been noticing my OneNote being sluggish lately, even for entering text notes, so I wanted to see what other users and Microsoft could offer for optimization tips. Here are some specific questions.

1) Is it better to have more notebooks with fewer sections, or more sections in fewer notebook, for fixed content. I'm thinking strickly of performance here.

2) Does the content on a page affect performance of the page (specifically updating and adding content)?

3) What settings should I check to make sure that my OneNote pages are ready to go when I open them. I often notice, particularly on the phone, that I open a page to update it and have to wait for it to sync first. I wish this could happen before I need to update the note.

I can describe my hardware and OS setups, but they're all pretty decent computers running Win 7, one Galaxy Note II and one Asus tablet.

PS - I'm using OneNote 2010 on the PCs
