Usually it's the size of the note that starts to slow things down, not really
the amount of notes. Back when I was taking notes in university once I got
past five or six portrait-size pages of text, things would start to slow
down... and then I would tap or try to make a correction and the Newton would
scroll back up to the top of the note - ARG!

In fact, I've still got those notes on my Newton, at least 100 of them filed
in a separate folder, and it doesn't slow down things one bit. Chalk it up to
the Newton's transactional object store and soup indexes.
