The thing is all that indexing and battery drainage I had would eventually shorten the lifespan of my device. As soon as I disconnected it would drop to 97% and to 80% in a couple of hours. Now with no "Search Indexes" folder it lasts for weeks.
Yeah, it will take absolutely ages if you always unplug it after loading books on. The CPU is throttled when you do that, to save power... leave it plugged in for a few hours (or, given how many books are there, a day or so) and I bet the whole lot would get sucked in.
