[...] interface began to look more like its Mac cousin. Since I use Evernote across Windows, Mac and iPhone I welcome the emphasis on uniformity that Evernote is taking for us cross-platform [...]

Settled the issue. I deleted the backup on my PC, clear the cache in Evernote and the whole backup process is now only 25 minutes.

I am not touching the offline functionality again until this is resolved.

The update rocks except, when I have downloaded (almost) all my notebooks to offline, the iPhone backup slowed to a crawl. Its not done even in two hours.

Based on the guides that I got from this link :-

I had eliminate most of other applications. The main culprit is Evernote, right when I had downloaded almost 300MB into offline of my notes.

To be fair, I believe most other people may not come across this problem. Based on what I have seen on the screenshot here, some people has less than 50MB for all their notes. As for me, I have used Evernote back before it became a “web-app”, during the time when we can actually have hierarchical tags for our notes.

I am now a premium user. It would be among the first thing in the morning for me tomorrow, to email their support of this problem. Sigh.

Still, it is reversible since we can just delete Evernote and put it back again in the iPhone.

This update really does rock. I’ve been a big fan and heavy user of Evernote for over a year, but my collection has grown so large that the iPhone app had become nearly useless to me. Everytime I was out somewhere and needed to search for something, I’d end up apologizing to anyone waiting for me to retrieve my info. In the past few days, though, I’ve put it to the test and it really works, thank goodness.
