Stats:
Calibre 4.12.
Kindle Voyage firmware 5.12.4
1013 books on Kindle
948 MB free on Kindle

tl;dr: Why won't the Kindle interface update to reflect the books I sideloaded?

EDIT: After a half hour, the other three books magically appeared and the deleted books vanished. What would take so long, how do I get it to work faster?
What's your folder hierarchy?

1013 books is a lot and if they're all in a single folder, that might be causing the slowness.

Try adding extra levels by changing your send to device template to something like:

A/
--Author/
----Title

Also, any books with non-ASCII or overly long filenames?
