![]() ![]() Another way is just create a folder to hold the cookbook library, then use the Library pulldown menu->switch/reate library->browse to the folder you made (icon on far right)->create an empty library at the new lodation. Reboot, run Calibre (still with the "empty" Library as the "last-used library" to keep that variable constant for this test), and compare its new performance to the prior performance. As others mentioned, virtual library is one way. Also clean your Drive C: using "Disk Cleanup" within Windows, including all System Files (including Windows Update). Check your environment variables for Windows for Temp, Tmp, and also any specific to Calibre. If the performance is identically awful, then it is either hardware or related to how your Calibre program has been installed, including the temporary file folder that you have told Windows to use in general, or for Calibre to use within Windows. What happens when Calibre the Program loads your empty Calibre Library? How does its performance differ from that you have stated in your previous posts? If the performance has not drastically improved, then your problem is not with your Calibre Library folder, which is totally new and empty, and therefore is as small as it gets. It is now your "last-used Library" that Calibre the Program will automatically load upon startup. Create a new, fresh, empty Library, and switch to it. Unfortunately, you have not yet clearly differentiated your performance data between "Calibre the Program" and "Calibre's Last-Used Library". Or if there is a cache has it been created in a separate location and is affected by the re-boot?Īs it stand it seems I must simply wait for Calibre to load and be patient. ![]() Searching for files - rebuilding a cache? who knows.Īs can clearly be seen I am no expert in how Calibre works so wondered if there is a cache somewhere that is being deleted on shutting down the computer and which needs to be rebuilt on boot up? However if I reboot the computer then the drive can clearly be heard as it seeks something? Once Calibre has loaded and I close it, I can re-open it in a matter of seconds without any sounds of the drive 'seeking' information. However to be sure I re-installed the library on a third internal drive with similar startup times. The library is stored on a partitioned separate internal hard drive from the operating system and I have no issues in accessing any other programs/data on that partition. The issue is definitely not a failing hard drive. Firstly thank you to all of you who have replied and tried to assist. ![]()
