surprising book lists order

After exchanging the One, I finished loading my 2246 books, with batches in reverse order to what I wanted to have accessible first in my recent reading list. I ejected the reader 3 times, and the 4th batch was my active list. But it was no use at all since the "recent" sort gave the reverse alphabetical order of titles. I've several times proceeded this way formerly (with F/W up to 3.15.0), and it is the first time the result is this.

I then synced the reading positions (together with the metadata and the related books and series). Surprise: some of the latest batch appeared at the front, whether read, finished, or unread, in no particular order, then (page 27 of 375) started the rest, still in reverse alphabetical of titles for those unread.

Reactivity
I've read in several reviews and comments that the One is reactive. In both my Ones I've found calling the collections (from the home page or the book list) appallingly slower than the Glo HD (F/w 3.15.0), which is not quick: some 16" instead of 5". Calling the book list is almost instant for both devices. What is going on? Is it a known bug to be corrected in later versions?

Both problems combined mean it becomes painful to navigate in my library, which is ridiculous in a device which gives you 8 GB to allow you to have a big one.

EDIT: I have 75 collections.
