Firstly, if you stop calibre when there are outstanding metadata.opf updates, when you run calibre again it will resume processing the outstanding updates.

Secondly, you can't run the calibre library manager (GUI) and calibredb commands concurrently. The only CLI programs I ever run alongside calibre.exe are ebook-edit and ebook-viewer.

The reason I force the metadata.opf updates to complete before my daily backup is to ensure that if I restore anything from that backup I am not restoring 'out of date' data.
