Newest Calibre is blindingly fast!

I salute you, Mr. Goyal!

The first time I sent a book to my NOOK after updating Calibre today I thought, "No way did that work" -- the process showed complete after less than a second (for a 1200-page book).

A 9.9Mb book (composed of page images) took barely one second.

Wow!

(And of course, THANK YOU.)

I second that Thanks!

I noticed a huge speed improvement too when converting to epub or mobi from a Word HTML file. Before it would take up to 3 minutes converting all those font definitions (Word 2003 puts a reference to every font you own in its documents) but now it's done in less then 30 seconds.
