Let me say up front that yes I am using Calibre on the LAN which I know is unsupported but it seems actually fairly common.

I have been merrily loading books and it was never very fast but I could at least make progress working in the background. However in the last week I seem to have fallen over some cliff--a metadata update on one book takes 15 minutes or more. Its really unusable at this point.

Code:

Calibre V2.45
Lan Write Speed (90Kbits/sec)
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600 CPU @ 3.40GHz
16GB Memory
Windows 10

It almost seems the db has hit some limit. Is there any way to reorganize the db? Any kind of optimization that will fix this serious problem? This isn't just a "gee I would like it to startup faster" issue--its really not usable any more.
