Metadata backup writes individual OPF files to the library, so if your library is ona slow drive, it will be very slow. ANd stopping it wont help, as it will automatically restart (calibre tries hard to make sure your db is backed up).

Your best bet is to temporarily move your library to a fasst disk. DO the backup and then move it back.
