Upgrade StorageDoes having content in Zotero folders cause duplication/performance issues
Just a quick query, since I'm new to the inner workings of Zotero. I have created some subfolders under "My Library" to organise my references. I notice that those references still appear under "My Library". I was wondering Zotero sees this as a duplication and whether this affects its performance. This is because I have about 3000+ references and Zotero has been incredibly slow. My file is roughly 150 pages and the size is 581kb. Any comments or suggestions will help. Thanks.

Is Zotero itself slow or working with a large Word document? The latter would be expected -- I'd recommend splitting up the document. Zotero itself should definitely not be slow with 3000 (or 10,000 for that matter) entries, though.
