When I was experimenting yesterday with reloading books onto Marvin on my iPhone using Calibre 2.2 on my Mac I had no problems until I reached a point where the process appeared to "hang" for 15 minutes or so when I was attempting to move some large books across (over 30 MB each). At this point I disconnected Marvin and force quit Calibre, almost certainly causing the db corruption at this point. I was unable to recover from this using Calibre 2.2, but did so easily using Calibre 1.48.

Is it possible that the Qt5 setup is somehow less robust at error recovery than the old Qt4 one?
