I am working with a group of users that is collaborating on documents where they use change tracking and comments to assist in their collaboration efforts. We have found that with tracked changes and comments in place they experience lags and locks, sometimes to the point that they are unable to work.
In the process of editing they are generating a lot of revisions.
What are the alternatives / workarounds / best practices related to change tracking and commenting that might be recommended to mitigate the related overhead?
Does Microsoft have any plans on addressing performance issues related to this feature? As of this time these users are using the most recent update available through the monthly channel, and based on searches online, "reviewing / change tracking" has been a contributing factor to performance issues for quite some time.
