I have no issue opening your file (under 1 second). > I also attach the profile.
Looking at the profile, the problem seems to be with ivy. Can you try opening the file without ivy. Something like M-: (find-file "~/Org/notes.org") <RET> P.S. You can also add notes to papers from org-ref. That is a great help when your paper database grow bigger.
