Get Device Infomation takes a LONG time?

Hi there! I am absolutely super happy to have found Calibre, and I now have my father and friend (who I convinced to use ebook readers) using as well. It's EXACTLY what I have always been searching for to compliment my reader.

I'm working on Windows 7-64bit. I don't know if it makes a difference or not, but, when I plug the reader in, (Astak EZ-Reader, 6" or the Hanlin V3) it seems to take an inordinately long time to get the information as to which books are on the device. It used to take 6 minutes approx, when I plugged it in, though now it takes about 2, but thats because I took all of my directory structure that I had on the SD-card and I am only using the calibre structure now.

Is there something I am missing here? Does calibre keep a record, for example, of what books were on there last time and check it against a new scan? Or does it rebuild the list every time?

Or is it just that I have forgotten to check some box in settings
Thanks for you help, much obliged!
