Speed boost for your Notes client on Linux
You need enough RAM. Follow these steps (adopted from here): 
					- Stop the Notes client
- Create a new directory: mkdir ~/notestemp
- Edit your notes.ini and add:view_rebuild_dir=/home/[yourid]/notestemp/
 NOTES_TEMPDIR=/home/[yourid]/notestemp/
 TempDir=/home/[yourid]/notestemp/
- Edit the mounting table: sudo gedit /etc/fstab
 Add this line (one line, tab separated values):tmpfs /home/[yourid]/notestemp tmpfs defaults,noatime,mode=1777 0
 and save the file
- Mount the new directory:sudo mount -a(a restart would do too)
- Start the Notes client
- Optional: Move more temp stuff to tmpfs
