My understanding is that editing a single cell in the book list is similar, with respect to disk I/O, as changing a value in Metadata Edit and terminating with OK. Perhaps chaley can confirm that.

And if that's true, then would it not call the disk control memory theory into question - chaley?

Yes! I can change them without problem or delay.
Calibre is fast in all the other operations this is what puzzle me!

For example :
- If I donwload the metadata and covers for 20-30 books in a single operation and in the windows that ask me if I want to apply the change I choose "review downloaded metadata" and I chose one by one if I want to accept it or not I've no delay!

- If I select 20-30 books and open "Edit metadata" and change 1 o more value for all the books or use "search and replace" I've no delay.

I don't understand why Calibre slow down only when I open "Edit Metada" windows for a single book even if I don't change anything in it.
