Processing time taking many hours affects a vanishingly small group of users. And for those three or so whom it does affect, this is surely an extremely rare event - just how many of those 8500 books is the user going to get through in the next year and need to replace?
To me, and to the overwhelming majority of users, this is simply a non-issue. That forty or so seconds out of my life while my Kobo processes a handful more books isn't actually going to make a big impact on my day. If I have to do a factory reset or something and want to add back a hundred or so, I can simply do it at a time when I have other stuff to do for a while. And I am a very heavy reader compared to average.
