I turn this option off since adding a ebook (outside of being a wireless device) to this folder would be extremely rare. What would you estimate the time hit be to leave this option checked? Also what pros are their in leaving this option checked that I might currently be overlooking?

The CC view currently is synced to be exactly the same calibre.

I also have my entire library on my device and updating the books when metadata in calibre's library changes could be disastrous (time wise) because for calibre everything is metadata. Creating a custom column to help answer someone's question could kick off an entire update of all 10,000+ books on my library.
On the other hand if I actually choose to update the metadata in a book using the Polish or Modify Epub plugin the actual book will have changed (not just calibre's metadata and possibly under those circumstances I might wish to have the option to update the book on my device.
Chaley thanks for all of the work you do on this and kaufman thanks for providing well thought out input into CC's operation.
