I suggest doing it in chunks and make sure you hide the Tag browser while you are doing this, that should help.

As for expected times, it is rather hard to say, it depends on a lot of variables. As a simple datapoint, copying 400 books to a 40,000 book library with tag browser hidden and both libraries on the same SSD and /tmp on a RAM disk, took ~10mins on my desktop.
