It isn't. I have about 12GB worth of books/papers/etc on my device, and my library is small relative to some of the other posters here.

Just because I've read a book or paper once doesn't mean I might not want to reference it again later. And the percentage of books on the device that I've read is fairly small; deleting them wouldn't affect the overall numbers much.

Even a primitive DB like sqlite can scale to tens of thousands of rows (probably hundreds) without issues. I certainly have no problem with ~4000-5000 files on my H2O.
