note (100kb+)
The Notes app is not a word processor and not designed to handle scientific works and write books. Split them into multiple notes (and glue them together with a category).
However it is crucial to mention which type of editor you are using: In the Notes Android apps settings, you can switch between preview, edit and rich edit. The last one is a web based editor and slower by nature - you can try using the edit mode which is implemented natively and should be able to handle more content gracefully. (Drawbacks are missing features like a yet missing toolbar as well as collaborative real time editing together with other people - the latter one will likely never come for the simple edit mode).

thanks, I did not know that. "plain edit" is much faster.
by playing with that, encountered this bug https://github.com/nextcloud/notes-android/issues/2196
