When I moved all of my books that were 500 MB+ in size, to their own physical library, Calibre was noticeably faster, except when I was working with that specific library.

One of these days, I'll hand-edit the ePubs, and gets them down to something more reasonable. (Why on earth is an ePub 2 GB in size? Or a PDF 5 GB in size? I can understand CBZ and CBRs coming in at that size, because they are essentially photo-galleries in an archive file format.)

Keep all of you ebooks under 100 MB in size, and you won't notice a speed difference.

I'm almost at the point of splitting a couple of books of poetry into the individual poems, because the number of items doesn't appear to affect the speed of Calibre, and hunting for specific poems within books can be aggravating.
