Secondly you dont need multiple set_custom calls, you can set all metadata with set_metadata, including custom columns in a single call. Simply specify --field multiple times.

It could be that other elements are impeding performance, but... yep, about 2-2.5 times as long per title.
And strange, I did try setting multiple metadata (standard and custom) at once, using that syntax... didn't seem to work.
However, I will try again. Perhaps I had it formatted incorrectly.
set_custom doesn't have '--field', though.
calibredb set_custom [options] column id value
I take it I should try
calibredb set_custom [options] [column id value]*
