Good, I wrote that just to be on the safe side
Edit to add: Wait, you said your /home is on another partition, and free space on / is shrinking? Then this is not caused by Calibre adding the files to the library. Might be temporary files?

Is there a command line option I can run to delete the original files as it runs? I do not have enough hard drive space to duplicate the entire collection.

No. You could create a script that first adds the book to the Calibre library via the CLI tools and then deletes the file, though. Or you could just add smaller batches to the GUI (you should be doing that anyway) and manually delete the books afterwards.

Is there also a way to limit the RAM that Calibre uses? It is using 100% of 2Gigs on Ubuntu which means I cannot run the import as a background process..

I don't think there is a way.
