I'm working on an org-mode file about cancer which is 945.1kb, is
converted to a tex file of 1.0mb and a pdf of 2.0mb with 505 pages. The
conversion is done through this code snippet '(global-set-key (kbd
"s-#") 'org-latex-export-to-latex)'. There is no problem = with the
conversion to tex or conversion to pdf.

However, the org-mode file is increasingly slowing down and becoming
difficult to move about within the file, and also enter new information
within it.

How then can I speed it up within the org file please?

Thanks
Sharon.
