@ transmitthis -- this has me befuddled:

weirdly after using cmd to open, it now only takes 19seconds, instead of 1m30. so all's good

EDIT - Hrm, that was only after repeatingly opening Calibre

After restarting Windows, Calibre takes 2 minuets to load

Its only the first startup after a reboot with a large library, that takes a very long time.
All my custom column/tag browser issues manifested themselves anytime a library was opened, whether when starting calibre, or when switching libraries within calibre.

If you want to test to see if it's related to your custom columns, it'll only take a few cups of tea Use windows to make a copy of your library, switch to the copy in calibre, delete the custom columns, wait for the library metadata backup to complete* (ok, a pot of tea), then try switching libraries and closing/opening calibre.

*Look under Library Maintenance - Metadata backup status
