I have about 23k files, about 5gig, 4gig on an 8gg SD card in my prs-650. The other gig in main memory on that one.

Mine are various sizes, being a 15 year collection of on-line fanfic, for about 10 fandoms.

First, are you running one main library on Calibre, or have you split them up yet? I have about 14 separate libraries in Calibre that I switch between all the time. One each for the larger fandoms, the largest having 12,509 files. That one runs a bit slow, so am thinking of dividing it up into two libraries. I have a "Main" library for purchased books. A separate library with just names of books for my "Wish List" and so I can keep track of series. And one just for "Freebies".

I keep a blank library for importing and working on new ebooks and fanfics. Then I "copy to library (delete after copy) to which ever Library they're to go to.

So far, no problems, although the bigger ones need to run for a bit if I batch process stuff. On it I'm running the "Count Pages" plugin, and only select about 1,000 titles at a time, and it's taking anywhere from 15 minutes to 2 hours to process the files. So it just depends on how long it takes to go through some really large files. (I tend to put series stories together in one file. So some are kinda big.)

Otherwise, running fine.
