The time taken to open the collections list is dependent on the number of collections and how many books are on them. Adding 200 books to a collection seems to have more affect than adding 20 empty collections. I've played with the database enough that I can't work out why it's so slow. And unfortunately, they don't cache the list. If you change the sort order, it is rebuilt from scratch.

The performance has improved with the firmware versions. But, it doesn't seem to help Helen. On my Glo I have 36 pages of collections. The first page is all over 100 books. With the firmware I am currently running, it takes 20-25 seconds. That is still to long especially considering that building the book list for 2000 books with their covers is well under 10 seconds. Helen and I have talked about this in the past, and I can't see a reason why it is so much slower for her. The Aura HD should be faster than the Glo.
