Nothing like the post of hours.  probably the worst I have seen is 4 or 5 minutes and normal is under a minute. Usually if I do a batch of 10 or so it might take 3 or 4 minutes. I had no idea some were having really long conversion times like described. I have never seen that even when doing from or to pdf which seems the longest to me. |
I buy a lot of the omnibus editions from Delphi Classics, which can contain dozens of individual books. Conversion times of several hours aren't at all uncommon for such books. Some of them can only be converted on 64-bit versions of Calibre; the 32-bit version runs out of memory.
