My Desktop which I prefer is Vista 64, Quad Core with 6GB of ram so it's much faster but still 17 minutes is way too long. When I do batches I do about 12 to 25 books at time but that's so I can verify each book has converted okay.
It may be that the long time to convert the file in Calibre is for the same reason as the poor performance of the same file on the Pocket Pro. I suspect the file is poorly formatted somehow or doing something really strange. This is not the expected performance on files I have used.
