It actually generated the covers each time they were needed. But, there appears to be a small cache so that it doesn't generate the covers if you open a book and then return to the home screen.

With 2.5 all the book covers are saved on the SD Card. This means the book covers are not regenerated every time when you turn off/on the device. This is leading to fast loading of the book covers.

Specifically all the covers are saved in the koboExtStorage\images directory.
That is correct and what I meant to say. But, thinking back, I didn't quite say that.

I am taking the guess that the current version of calibre isn't delete the data in the koboExtStorage\images which leads to mixed up book covers.
Again correct. The changes have been made and should be in this weeks calibre.
