I've searched in this newsgroup and didn't find discussion on this -- my
apologies if this has been talked about already and I'm just missing it.
My group uses OneNote heavily -- both local notebooks on our hard-drives and
some shared notebooks. Many people are embedding files in their OneNote pages
-- XLS, DOC, PDF, PPT, etc. They range in size from small (10-100 KB) to
large (several MB).
I have been encouraging people to put the files on the network and link to
them instead. One obvious advantage to that is that people that don't have
OneNote will still be able to access those files (e.g., for Excel files, they
just need Excel -- which everyone here has of course).
But the other reason I was giving was to keep OneNote performing well. But
that was based on an assumption that I am now questioning... and I am hoping
folks here can dispell for me. Does it matter from a performance perspective
if you embed a bunch of large files in a OneNote notebook? I ask because I'm
not actually seeing a performance hit -- for instance, the RAM usage for such
a notebook isn't becoming outrageous at all, and I'm not *feeling* slow
performance switching between pages with large embeded files either (not
graphics displayed in the notes, I mean attached files that become part of
the .one files).
Thanks!
