Not to worry (BTW there are More Windows users and Windows does not have a \var )

It is not so much a 'limit' as a realistic, typical usage, so not much time was spent. If you spend time here, you will see that most of the 'resource' issues are from those who shove multi-K books down the pipe at once.
Most add a few hundred to start and grow slowly.

I added a single format from the Baen CD's (1 CD at a time) and Calibre had no problems with 20-100 books at a time. Now days, I add 5 to 10 book when I buy the next 'Baen Bundle' ...Plus a few

BTW if you look at My Member Since date, that is when I started with Calibre and I have just reached 5K books (with formats) level. That was also when I got my first reader.

Take your time and read a few of those books.... They are not going away
