Am I doing something wrong ? I don't need to have calibre connect to the Nook anyway (for now). I prefer to do the transfers by other means.

PS: There's a micro SD card in the Nook. Could that be the problem ?
This is not a speedy task on a sizable device load. Due to hardware issues, I run my PEz on a USB 1.x port which slows it down even more. The log shows 1 min 4 Sec for a device that has already been scanned by Calibre.
Until that completes, Calibre has to open each and every file to read metadata. Get some Coffee while it grinds away
