Evernote takes around 10 minutes just to download 150 small text only notes with the window active on evernote. I'm not sure what the bottleneck is, but this a huge problem in the functionality. I have a fast internet connection and a newer phone, for reference. I have around 10k notes, with an archive export size of about 160mb. Thinking that is too many, I reinstalled the app and tried "Download selected notebooks" and got that result.
As I bought the personal plan in order to access my notes offline on mobile, this is quite a disappointment.
