I have been seeing the same thing as the original poster. Along with random crashes.
I'm running Win XP pro SP3. I add books using multiple books per directory option and read metadata from the file name setting. My calibre library is on a different hard drive than the source books, and it takes 3-4 seconds per book. I ran calibre using "calibre-debug -g" from the command prompt and I get a couple
"link hasn't been detected!"
Sometimes it will let me add the entire directory without crashing. When it does crash I get the following dialog box.
The instruction at "0x652c8d69" referenced memory at "0x00000008". The memory could not be "read"

The only other thing I get in the command prompt is a couple of these:
Job: 19 Read metadata (6 of 7) finished
Read metadata (6 of 7)
Job: 16 Read metadata (3 of 7) finished
Read metadata (3 of 7)

I've tried reinstalling Calibre and I'm not running Anti-virus or any other programs along with Calibre. Every book I'm trying to add is in PDF format.

I'm not sure what other information I can give you that may help diagnose the crashes.
