The tool populates the auto-add folder very quickly (in seconds). What took 2 minutes for the 200 was the Calibre auto-add book process. If I were you, I wouldn't overload Calibre with 2000 at once unless you have the PC power to support it, including an SSD drive for your Library. You could turn auto-add OFF for .ris files, run the tool, then cut-and-paste the 2000 into a holding folder. Then, move a chunk of them at a time back into the auto-add folder after turning the auto-add for .ris back ON. Once the auto-add folder is empty, repeat.
Added: Zotero's exported RIS file has no T1 Tag like 'normal' RIS files downloaded from most DOI academic sites, only a TI Tag. So, the Title in Calibre per the Extract RIS Citations plugin configuration becomes the Auto-Add file name.
So, Beta3 of the new JS tool automatically creates a T1 if there is only a TI, and vice-versa. If a .ris has both, then it does nothing.
Be sure to compress your Library after adding a lot of books using Library Maintenance.
See the JS thread for a new beta version of JS.zip.
