Calibre is sometimes fast, sometimes veeeeery slow

Wondering if something is up with the settings or something, but I am at my wit's end here. Sometimes Calibre zips along and everything is going smoothly. Other times, it is so slow that I can wait 15 minutes for one book to transfer. I started Calibre today after doing a weekly run with Onyx and it was speedy. I planned to leave it open and never quit. I was home sick today so I got a ton of stuff done. Then I was trying to close another window and quit by accident. I was devastated. When I opened it back up again, it was back to spending nearly ten minutes to convert a simple epub to a simple mobi, and now I am sitting there checking email while I wait for it to transfer two books to the Kindle. It really should not take this long, should it? Especially the file transfers, they didn't used to take this long. I only have 800 books. I just don't know what's going on because sometimes it does work normally. What I want to know is what's different in those cases so that I can replicate it I would have gone to bed twenty minutes ago if it was taking a more reasonable length of time to get things going. I am just trying to transfer a few books to the Kindle and I feel like it's going to take me all night.
