Not exactly. Conversion was only the first step.
Calibre first places all the files in the /tmp folder and does the conversion there. As a result of the first step, this folder contains fb2 files, epub files, ofp files and a number of files with service information.
The files have already been converted, but not yet in the calibre library.
But the next step is to transfer the prepared files from the /tmp folder to the calibre library.
This is where I was very disappointed.
The process is slow. Very slow!
Number of fb2 files: 412722
After 17 hours of calibre work, 8905 epub files appeared in my library
According to the speed of data transfer, it will take 787 hours to complete the work! That's 32 days!
Just transfer the already converted data from the tmp folder to the library folder + Rename the files.
I understand that calibre uses python and SQLite as a database.
I understand that it is free software. And thanks to kovidgoyal for calibre.
I understand that calibre is simply not designed for that many books.
But 32 days, Karl!!
This is the slowest database I've ever encountered.
