Storage and Location

I love Supernotes but if I would like to apply by put journal every single day suppose 20 years, Is it possible to handle by its storage? Also, where the Place or location is handled with this capacities?

Thank you fore stupid question…

Hey @Chotsaeng, welcome to the community! That would not be a problem. If you made one card a day for 20 years, you’d have 7300 cards at the end of it. We have many users on the platform with more cards than that, so you would be fine.

Data is mostly stored in data centers in London, but that might change in the future.

thank you for reply :blush:

This brings me to a related question - has anyone documented any stress tests for supernotes? I remember seeing some community members dump a lot of notes into Obsidian, for example, and have recorded it’s performance (in terms of building the graph view, running searches, and so forth).

I used to keenly check out performance reports before committing to an app because I anticipated having tons of notes; but it seems like having a very large DB is at loggerheads with features like efficient sync. In fact, one of the reasons Obsidian became unusable for me was because I dumped too much it it: automated sync with readwise brought in a lot of stuff without my even having to do anything, and I also did time logs (~40 tiny notes every day just from those; and the reports from dataview were very nice to look at except when the date range started exceeding six months: then I could feel it slowing down), apart from actual notes from projects :grimacing:

I’m now committed to (a) creating all my notes manually; (b) separating out the bulk (I do my time-tracking in a dedicated app now); (c) keeping all my notes text-based. I hope this will keep things under control, but a part of old me is still curious about performance at scale :smiley:

I currently have 5100+ notes in Supernotes. The only time I notice any slow down is when Supernotes animates a graph view that contains a large number of notes (e.g. the graph view for Home). However, once the animation is complete, the graph view becomes responsive again for navigation—even when it’s showing all of my notes and connections.
