QUESTION Lots of little pages - is that wise?

Normally that isn't a problem with GS native pages, but its also depending on your server's available RAM and how you're handling a huge amount of pages.
I am not sure whether GetSimple provides a pagination function under the pages view or some search and filter features that you can use to browse through your card collection efficiently.

I do not know how is your programming experience, but this is a clear case for ItemManager plugin, which allows you to handle large quantities of data very effective.

Maybe an unusual setup. My class has no internet so my server is an elderly Asus 701, the original Linux netbook. With only 512K of RAM and a nearly 10 year old Celeron processor, it is handling about a dozen pages and over 60 students. I have a Raspberry PI 3 on order which should be an upgrade to a Gig of ram and faster processor. The little Asus has only a 4g hard drive so space is also limited. Great to be able to deliver text and pictures so easily.
I have only thought of labeling each page so they fit in a block on my page view so I can scroll past them quickly.
Got to say, I love GS and am using the Mobi theme as all my users are using mobile phones so I need a minimal interface. I have some CS background but so far have not lifted the hood.
I will look at ItemManager plugin this weekend.
