Update.

over 325,000 books in library
77,000 directories in library root
1.3 million files in directory
640ish meg database file.

running on Ryzen 7 2700x cpu with 32 gig ram and a crucial 4t nvme at 3500mbs
opening calibre in empty library 3 seconds
opening on this library 18 seconds
search 2 seconds.

you can see my post on my old system above from june of 2020 to contrast it. Defiantly faster than it was with new hardware and upgraded nvme. Actually I think it is fastest its ever been. Win for throwing hardware at it.
