Congratulations! You managed to (potentially) triple your configured Calibre processes instead of double them.


Although automatically launching one BG job per site is an idea I considered. I'm not sure the complications are worth it for most users. Separate 'Proceed with updating you library' dialogs per site/BG job--or a lot more complicated update code.

There are some other ideas, but there are tradeoffs. I will come back to it in a while.

If you want to figure out a fix and make a pull request in github, I'll look at it.

But it's a pretty obscure corner case (and possibly OS dependent?) and I'm busy else where in the system right now. I'm only looking at the BG jobs issue because it's tangentially related to what I'm working on.
