Just to compare try to do the other way around (meaning getting there from the menu). At least with about 30 authors there is no delay there and as davidfor already mentioned its all done in memory anyway, so as programmer I can tell you you do NOT have to rebuild database (which is modified anyway when you delete book) all that you need is to decrement book counter on the author "you are in" in memory and if it's 0 then remove author from "in memory" list displayed.
No interactions with database whatsoever and , unless you have like 10k authors should be without any delay.
I think it's just a bug, someone forgo to call update on that author, that's it.
