Are you editing in Reference Manager, or via "edit citations" in Word?
Editing in Reference Manager should be faster - and a database of
500-600 references is not big enough to slow it down.
With that many citations in a document however, having "instant
formatting"
switched on will slow down Word considerably, so it may be better to
only generate the bibliography occasionally. Maybe you could break the
thesis into chapters in the short term, and only bring them together at
the end?
500 cited references is a lot - so the programs are likely to struggle a
bit. It may also be worth closing all the other windows that are open,
to give maximum space for the computer to work on the bibliography
generation.
Hope this helps
