I did "calibre-debug -g >calibre.log" and lo and behold, startup took about 17 seconds. The log file is attached to this post. Next I tried a normal startup of calibre, and that also took less than 20 seconds. The library and the database are all on a local disk on this server, disk G:, not C:. It seems that the problem has disappeared by itself. Not very satisfying. Thanks for all your suggestions! Bart Bart |

The forum site seems to think that a .log file is an invalid file. Strange. But it is so small, here it is:

b) 16 GB, but about 4 GB is occupied by a VM. c) about 6 GB OK, I stand corrected, my library is not big. Bart |

Yes, sorry. I have always downloaded newer versions after being prompted by the running version, 32 bit.
I will replace it by the 64 bit version. Thanks, Bart |

The 64-bit version should be faster as it will use more memory and have less swapping.

@BartZorn
When the performance issue happen again check with the task manager and resource manager your system performance. This will maybe give you additional hints for improvements. |

I now have the 64 bit version installed. Difference is hardly noticeable.
