If it's a series:
Gav Thorpe - [Time of Legends - The Sundering #1] - Malekith (2008) [9788448038373].epub
so I can just go, as stated "cd library ; find . -name "Time of Legends*epub" | parallel cp -rv {} /mnt/bookreader.
I don't care if it's on my bookreader already or not. Why would I?
I can search by any field, ISBN, author, series.
Once you have very many books, I personally have just found it's easier to deal with them that way than wait for calibre.
Of course, small libraries will load calibre quickly but I find command line operations to be faster in general.

Perhaps you should show us the file name for an anthology with more than one author? One that starts pushing the 255 character filename limit. Or a book that belongs in more than one series? Quick example would be Christopher Stasheff's
A Warlock in Absentia which is the first book in both
The Rogue Wizard and
The Warlock's Heirs series.
As for whether or not, it is on your bookreader? I prefer not to accidentally copy over an existing book. YMMV.
As for the library size effect on load times? 9861 books gives .33 seconds for the database, in a VM, 7 books gives .02 seconds for the database.
