Avi replied
Please don't forget QuickFind!  It will make all your searches much faster,
I promise.  Subsearching is often less efficient and will not speed
everything up.

And I add:
Don't forget to set your memory partition sufficiently large so that
the entire EndNote file including the indices are  in RAM.  If part
must be reloaded from disk often the search will be very slow.
