I'm using calibredb to extract (copy?) the KFX books to a new single folder:

export --progress --all --dont-save-cover --dont-write-opf --format kfx --single-dir --template "{authors}-{series}{series_index:0>2s|[|]-}{title}" --to-dir "D:\eBooks\KFX"

It seems like there's a lot more happening than just the copy and it seems like that if it's embedding the metadata, it takes a lot longer than for the same for an ePub.

Is that just a 'side effect' of the plugin or something else?
