Calibre give you complete control over the resources you give its worker processes. Go to
Preferences -
Interface -
Behavior and change
Job Priority from
Normal to
Low.

I would guess that 99.99% of the folks primarily use the GUI.
If the above isn't enough then go to Preferences - Advanced - Miscellaneous and check the box
Limit the max. simultaneous jobs to the available cpu cores.
Doing the top item I suggested allows me to do whatever I want while calibre handles bulk updates for me.
