I decided to convert my entire collection of epubs using Calibre just to be sure they are in "good form."

Certain of the epubs take FOREVER to convert, however. One conversion -- a 500 kb epub -- has been chugging along for HOURS. I'm doing it using command line, and can see that progress seems to be happening. But..., why so long???

Are certain epubs so ill-formatted, or complex, that a conversion takes longer?

Any thoughts appreciated.
