So, after waiting a while for the complete synchronization, here is the result.
- a note with a pdf file that is opened for the first time takes a while (approx. 2 turns of the green waiting indicator)
- After I open the note and open it a second time, the time it takes to display the first page of the pdf is reduced to about 1/2 to 1 turn.
- this is still far from "fast" and slower than in Legacy
- when connecting with wifi instead of a wired network connection the time increases again.
- Therefore, I suspect that even after a note has been opened with pdf and then possibly ended up in the local cache, something still has to be transferred over the Internet each time it is opened again
- All in all, I still find the current version much slower, I would even say hard on the edge of acceptability if you really want to work with it
- scrolling through the notes to display the first page of the pdf file is therefore annoyingly slow
- Even many of the relativizations about the speed of the app expressed here in the forum are of little use, I think anyone who is interested can understand this for themselves in their evernote environment
Conclusion:
I hope that the developers still have speed as priority 1 on their list. New features like the file display are certainly helpful, but in the version just released they are far from professionally implemented and bug-free. I am therefore not sure whether the decision-makers and/or developers have the right focus
