This is happening on both of my glo's and my aura, they used to be ready to use in less than 2 mins with the same amount of books on them.
I would gratefully love any suggestions of speeding them up without removing the books from them.
Also at least one of the glo's is now dropping 4% battery every time I start it up.

That I am not noticing -- the time from power on to ready to read has not changed noticeably for me. ~2000 books mostly on an external uSD card, total space about 1.67GB. A couple of large graphic intensive ebooks that are in the 12-89MB range but most are much smaller.
The last time I saw startup times in that range was due to a glitch in image generation. Perhaps you could try using Calibre to send the ebooks with covers or use DavidFor's plugin for Calibre to do so and see if the startup time drops to a reasonable range.
