That 32GB is not memory, but storage. There is no change from the Aura ONE in the amount of RAM in the Aura ONE LE.

Are there some tips and tricks for managing such a large number of books in a more efficient way?
To be honest, the only way to make it faster is to not put so many books on the device. But, what is slow? The home page, reading, opening a book, the library or something else?

For instance, is there a way to make books folders not processed and not visible by Kobo, but I should see them (and "download" them) only via the web browser (for example)?
As cramoisi said, a directory whose name starts with a dot will be ignored. But, there is no way to load books from there later without connecting to a PC. You could enable telnet, and use that to copy the books somewhere that will be processed, but then you need a method to trigger the processing.
