This PENGUIN ebook didn't seem unusual until I discovered that it contained a 50 level deep series of nested <Div> statements that spanned the entire length of the ebook. I now suspect this is what caused calibre to hang. |
I'm glad you finally managed to get the book to convert.
It looks like you ran across the rare configuration that may actually have throw the Heuristic processing for a loop. Then again after 24 - 48 hours it may have finished. Truly not worth the time to find out.
I have seen this reported once or twice. It might be worth it (to prevent this from happening to others) to create a
bug report and attach the book to the report so it can be investigated. After you attach the book you can mark the bug report private so the copyrighted book isn't floating for anyone to see.
