FWIW The Calibre DB is in lockstep with the Library files and folders. Break the cadence (net/cache delays) and the garbage builds up.

FreeFilesync is fine for making a backup copy. Not so much if you need to use your library (i.e. edit books and metadata) on two different computers. But yes, of course you need to stop syncing while Calibre is in use.
