Kovid,
you are master of the understatement.
On the changelog page you write: "Add Books: Improve performance when adding large numbers of books at once"
This is HUGE improvement. The books are, at the moment, being added more than order of magnitude faster. On my system I see more than 30 fold improvement in speed.

Recently I have purchased an SSD disk, hoping that, among other things, adding books would be a little bit faster. There are many things that are much faster, but until recently I did not see any improvement in the speed of book adding.
An hour ago I have upgraded to 2.10 and I was blown away with the speed increase.

THANK YOU!
