Any ideas what this could be.
Perhaps it's still doing what it has to do to be able to provide Bookshelf view. When that's finished, should settle down.

My own system has three task mgr lines for calibre:

the main calibre program using 171MB memory and 0-.1% CPU
and two calibre worker process using no CPU and 12.7MB memory each.

No hard drive light at all once the program starts up.
