I updated to 7.10, and it also immediately started those same 3 jobs.

But when I update to 7.11, Calibre doesn't start any jobs.

I have a lot of side-loaded books. Under 7.09 and 7.10, the last job, "Get list of books on device" takes over an hour to complete (back before the Amazon switch to MTP, it would only take about a minute on USB). If 7.11 is trying to do these jobs in the background before showing them in the job list, then maybe I should let it sit for an hour or more. I'll report back.

Thanks to everyone for their feedback!
That sounds about right. It sure seems there is some opportunity for optimization here. Judging from the console traffic I was seeing with calibre-debug, and less than 20 books, there seemed to be a lot more back and forth than I would expect.
