The two values I set were:

"Specify columns to sort the booklist by on startup"
sort_columns_at_startup = [('authors', 0), ('title', 0)]

"Set the maximum number of sort 'levels'"
maximum_resort_levels = 2
I don't remember seeing a stored (between sessions) Index for any 'Sort'

Calibre needs to generate a 'Startup sort' on the fly.

the sort needs to process 47K Authors with 47K Author entries.

If startup time is important... Don't sort until you need to.
