thought i'd add a data point to the mix. i decided to consolidate my entire library onto a ko2. i have 2400 books in calibre, 400 documents, and 100 i've purchased via amazon. i knew i was too impatient and too distracted to load them in batches so i just moved all 2400 books at once and we were off to the races. i connected the oasis to power and let it churn for several hours and it seemed to have stopped about 700 books in on some short book.
i deleted 5 on the screen just in case (btw, if you plug the ko2 into calibre after you're finished, you can easily see the ones you deleted and add them) and let it churn overnight. in the morning it had hung with about 400 to go and again not on a large book (i have dozens and dozens of huge books such as those delphi collections and technical and reference works) and i again deleted 5 more books and it continued on to completion right on schedule of 24 hours for 2400 books. the last dozen seemed to take forever, but 3 of those were delphi collections.
i then added the purchased books and my docs and those took about another hour or two to index and i ended up with about 2900 books although there's about 100-200 duplicates in there and kindle is useless at telling me which is which in case i wanted to delete the dupes.
but again, as you say, once the dust has cleared the ko2 is as responsive as it was when it only had 400 books on it and searches don't have much lag.
