"WOW, you have a huge one!"

So far, I use Calibre to catalog my audiobooks, articles and 2500 books in separate libraries. I was concerned that 2500 was too much ... well not anymore

However, as my library grows, I notice the load time is longer. Now that I know it uses 3Gs to run, It may be a good idea to divide the 2500 book library.

Thank you all for the great information!

With an empty library, 64-bit 5.11 uses 150MB RAM here. With a 17K books library, it uses 260 MB. So I wouldn't bother on that account (but yes, with the 368K books library open, it uses almost 3GB. It seems to use about 7KB RAM per entry).

With Calibre 4.23 64-bit, a 1 entry library it takes 165MB.

Dear mbovenka & JSWolf,

Well okay then, I can leave my library as is.

Thank you for the information.
