Onenote 2007 Memory Lag? Using 1.6GB RAM (all physical RAM exhuasted)

[Rommie2k6]

I'm not sure if anyone has noticed this.

I am running Onenote 2007 B2TR and it handles handwritten files very
badly.

Ok, I was doing a mindmap using OneNote, and so the entire page (fixed
@ A4 size since I was going to print it out) was all handwriting.
However, I realized that the more I wrote, the more sluggish it got.
Towards the end even switching from pen to eraser had a 5 second lag
time...

My system resources climbed to 1GB+ pretty quickly, and just for the
sake of it I continued writing. Onenote 2007 exhuasted all my 1GB of
physical RAM and system resources climbed to 1.6GB+. Virtual Memory
usage at that time was 1.1GB. To continue my work, I had to continually
close and restart the program, at about every 15-30min intervals, to
prevent my system resources from scaling such great heights.

Btw I don't have much running the background. 450MB system resources
taken up on bootup.

So... has this memory leak or poor ability to handle heavy inking been
fixed in the final release?



Has anyone tried the final version yet?

Oops, forgot to include the specs of my laptop.

TC4400 running 2.0GHz Dual-Core CPU with 1GB RAM. I'm quite sure it's
not my systems specs is causing this problem....

Normally I have stuff like Kapersky, MSN, and Outlook running the
background. I do my work with a PDF file open too.

I don't know whether this was addressed or not, because I don't see this
kind of behavior. The only way you can find out is by trying the RTM
version yourself.

I;m running into the same issues with OneNote 2007 B2TR.

It even becomes a lag to write. I'll stop writing then start again an
there's a 5 second lag before my handwriting shows up. This happen
after i've been using one note for a bout a half hour.

Really eats up my ram.

My specs.
Fujitsu T4010D
1.83ghz Pentium
1Gig Ram

Also have Kaspersky. That might an issue. Trying to run tests with i
running and not running. Let's find out

At this point you should uninstall and run any tests against the RTM
version.

Thanks for the suggestion. Uninstalled B2TR and installed RTM. Ran ON
Note for an hour, no problems, so i left it open over night and i
didn't inscrease the ram size at all. Looks like this issue i
resolved, at least for my pc.


Thanks Again

Hi, I'm having this same problem.
I use onenote a lot, but whenever I'm handwriting, I become really slow;
memory goes up to the sky. Have to close it, and open it again, happening
every 20 or 30 minutes. When I'm typing, no problems, runs perfectly.
My version is the RTM and I already re-installed it twice. I run Windows XP
Tablet PC.
Any help?

Thanks.

Arthur
