While this discussion has been going on I have gradually edited FN/LN my entire library the "hard" (ie slow plugin) way so from now on I will only be dealing with one or two books periodically as I buy new ones so speed issues won't BE issues.

To conclude the thread: there is no question that there is some major issue with this module of GUI PI Quality Check, albeit only for me. Every single other fix/check in that same plugin works exactly as and as fast as I'd expect it to. Swap FN/LN continues to be ridiculous to the point of stalling my entire system - i.e. can't multitask whatsoever when it's running, not even run my browser - and throwing up errors if I choose too many books (more than 20 or so) in a list selected using (say) check series gaps. It **sounds** like a RAM issue, but it can't be when everything else which is used for doing tasks just as complex in terms of database processing, including multitasking with 3-4 big programs inc Calibre running, works just fine. Anyway, I am clearly flogging a dead horse at this point so I will call it a day. One or two books at a time? I can live with it.

Thanks to everyone for suggestions and input. Much appreciated!
Renaming an Author is disk intensive.
The library files titles in the Authors folder
Flip the name and a New folder is created:
Each Book is moved and the DB updated.
Repeats until completed
finally the old (now empty) folder is discarded
