I converted them all at once. There was a slight hang in the app while it "thought" about what needed to be done (I'll look into alleviating this if possible). The conversion went smoothly. Two books at a time (one per processor core). The computer stayed responsive. I'm assuming you were converting to Mobi? It looks like in some cases there is a memory issue with mobi so that is probably why you were experiencing this.
0.6 has a new jobs system and like Kovid, I use Linux. What you might be seeing with adding might be a Windows specific bug in the new code.

Yeah, I was converting to MOBI, and yes this is under Windows XP. After converting a couple of PDFs in a batch Calibre would quickly shoot up to 2 GB in size and bring the system to a crawl. I've also just sit there and not do anything when adding a lot of new files at once, but I've seen this a couple of times with other types of files as well. Perhaps this is Windows-specific or related to drag-n-drop in the GUI.
