I run calibredb check_library everytime I backup so the original metadata.db has already been vacuumed (from 27MB to 20MB, iirc).

I actually created a copy of the library and put the bad metadata.db. There were just some tags changed between bad and original, the metadata.db sizes are really close. Vacuuming that gave me just ~100KB reduction.

I really think something else was lost with the restore.
