Save highligheted text as a note is very slow

[GoogleCodeExporter]

PRS-600 / PRS+ 600 2.1.01 alpha

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Every time I try to take a note [highlight text or draw on the page] the time 
to save the note is very long, more than 40 seconds!
All the others functions works perfectly and the only problem is this, if I 
just highlight the text, and the screen above the status bar appears, 
everything works fine but when I select the icon to mark the text as a note, it 
takes almost a entire minute to do it!

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I'm sure it doesn't happen because of the number of books, or notes, inside the 
internal memory or the SD card. I've tried to solve this with just 6 books 
inside each memory [internal and SD] however the problem persists. I've tried 
hard resets, uninstall PRS+ twelve, and it still is lazy for save the note 
[pdf, epub, lrf, rtf, it doesn't matter].

I second that opinion, taking notes on prs+600 has become painstakingly slow. 
It`d be nice if there was a way to optimize that.

Was the process of saving notes faster at some point?  Or has it always been 
slow on the 600?  (I know that the x50 readers are noticeably faster than the 
600.)

I made some more tests and:

1) I noticed that the 6 books I had in the SD/internal memory without notes 
were, actually, with notes :/ a total of ~300 notes
2) After deleting some notes, I realized that it's up to 150~200 notes the 
reader starts to become lazy.

So I must correct myself: the number of notes are the problem!

Without PRS+, the reader can handle normally like 1500~2000 notes with few lose 
of performance, and with the PRS+, if there is more than 200 notes, every 
annotation takes almost 1 minute to be save.

Thanks for doing those tests.  Knowing that it is the number of notes that is 
the problem, I looked through the code but can see nothing obvious that would 
explain the slow down.  So I guess the answer is to delete (or copy to your 
computer) the saved notes often so that they don't build up.

Consequently, I think we can close this issue.
