My library currently has just over 5,000 books in it. I never really worried about the cover sizes, until I noticed one specific book's cover was over 2Mb and the book itself was only 440kb. I realized I'm wasting an enormous amount of space on my Dropbox and backup drive. I used Irfanview to proportionally resize all covers so the long side is a maximum of 500 pixels long.

The whole exercise took less than a minute!
