Calibre doesn't leave any processes running if you exit the program.

Of course if you have the Enable system tray icon feature checked under Preferences - Interface, then you have to use ctrl-q to exit the program. Just clicking on the big red X just minimizes calibre to the system tray. See attached.

You can also go to Preferences - Advanced and lower the number of worker processes.
