I am now up to 2141 books in my main (Master) library consisting of 10,130 items, totaling 8.8 GB. This Library holds everything (actual ebooks, placeholders for most of my physical books, placeholders for my audiobooks). Its metadata.db file is only 9.1 MB. I also maintain separate libraries for my physical books and audiobooks. My physical books library stores the book's general location in a text custom column. I do have custom columns for Genre, Location, Page count, word count, and tracking what I am currently reading; still need to read; and have read that I sync to Goodreads. I also have a custom column that combines location with formats so I can at a glance see when I have physical, audio, and ebook copies of a title.

My separate Audiobook Library has 712 entries for the mp3/flac files making up the 125 audiobooks in it (an average of 5 mp3/flac files per book). It consists of 2,829 items, totaling 27.6 GB. Its metadata.db file is only 2.7 MB.

So I guess the "size" of your library depends on what measurement you are looking at.
