My Word documents become increasingly unresponsive as I add internal hyperlinks to them. This seems odd as I using a T7910 Dell Workstation with 64GB of memory.
Now I plan to create a large Word document with 300 internal hyperlinks. On past experience Word will choke on this. My document will have no images, but it will have footnotes referencing books and articles. Some of these will have external hyperlinks.
What can I do to improve Word handling of documents with large numbers of internat hyperlinks? Should I increase my Word memory allocation (how would I do that)?
I've looked at various webpages dealing with Word being sluggish, but I cannot find anything definitive. It seems odd that Word has trouble handling such basic tools as internal hyperlinks.
I do have a number of active add-ins: Zotero, Perfect PDF 10 Premium, Perfect PDF 12 Premium, Power User, Date, Metric Convertor and NatSpeak. Is it possible to turn these off for a single document or can you only deactivate add-ins globally?
Again it seems very odd that such a popular program with very many features like Word, seems to have such extreme limitations on document size and feature use.
My thanks in advance for your help and suggestions.

@GrahamK2135 Can you achieve that same functionality using Cross References which can be inserted as hyperlinks?
