It is expected to last a bit for really large Libraries.

1)Calibre added Pages column, used by the shelf view.
2)deleted unused (Calibre ) DB columns
3) #1 , #2 triggers a redo of metadata.opf in the title folders.

Add a really aggressive AV scan (also slows things down)

I ran the beta, so the recrunch happened a while back. Hardly noticeable, but my PC is always on.
