Yes, this is by far the most common cause of a high battery drain.

To check, go to the home screen and type in a search string of random characters (so you don't get any genuine matches). If the "Text in Books" result tab is enabled, select it, and see if it says something like "XXX items not yet indexed". If it does say that, tap on that line and it'll show you what the items are that aren't indexed.

The best way to avoid this is to add books in small numbers (eg 20 or so at a time) and wait for each batch to finish indexing before adding the next batch. Indexing goes much faster when the Kindle is connected to a wall charger.
