If someone runs this experiment and experiences different times (more than a few seconds), I would like to hear about it.
The cache does seem to work.  |
Just tested this with Calibre 0.73.
Start Calibre, connected my Sony 505 (with 49 books on it), took some seconds the show the column OnDevice, great.
Disconnected throught the icon next to the library, took the usb cable out of the Reader and started timing when the text 'usb connected' disappeared--> 2:20
Closed Calibre, plugged my reader in, waited until the windows dialog appeared asking what todo with the new drive, close that window, ejected the reader and took it of the usb cable, started timing when 'usb connected' disappeared--> 17 secs
Just a wild guess, but I think people should tell whether they are running a plain reader or a reader with for example PRS+. I'm running PRS+ 1.1.3 WITH a date setting of MM-DD-YY which is NOT the DEFAULT and might explain why it takes so long.
Is ther anything I can do to help debug this?
For example take a snapshot of the files modified with and without Calibre active?
