It is advisable to compact your Calibre metadata.db database periodically. The menu path is Calibre > Library > Library Maintenance > Check Library. It will perform a SQLite Vacuum operation to condense/compact/defrag the database. Example before and after a Vacuum:
Before compacting<<<----------->>>After compacting:
Page Count = 118,342
<<<---------->>>Page Count = 3,606
Database Size = 121,182,208 bytes
<<>>Database Size = 3,692,544 bytes
So, the metadata.db file went from over 121mb to less than 4mb in size.
