Changed

  • The library scan is now linear in library size instead of quadratic (#757) — reconciling on-disk files against the database ran a Jaro-Winkler title comparison for every (file, book) pair, an O(files × books) cost that made the first scan of a large migrated library take minutes and allocate gigabytes of memory. The title comparison is now scoped to the file's author and the loop-invariant title normalisation is hoisted out of the inner loop, so a realistic per-author library scans in time proportional to its size — a 2,000-book library drops from ~3.6 s to ~0.08 s, allocating 98% less memory.

Fixed

  • The library scan no longer transposes author and title for Readarr- and Calibre-organised libraries (#754) — the scan inferred author and title by splitting the filename on " - ", assuming a Title - Author order, but Readarr's default naming and Calibre both write Author - Title, so every migrated book scanned in with the two swapped and downstream metadata matching failed. The scan now derives author and title from the {Author}/{Book}/ folder hierarchy — unambiguous and dash-safe — and falls back to filename parsing only when no such hierarchy is present.

Docs

  • Added wiki pages for troubleshooting, storage and hardlinking, and migrating from Readarr (#755) — new guides under docs/ covering common setup problems, how Bindery's storage layout and hardlinking behave, and the path for bringing an existing Readarr library across.
