Download Metadata Has Slowed Way Down

Hello,

In the last couple of days, the Download Metadata function on my ihas become extremely slow. The logs now end with "The identify phase took 199.22 seconds" but I don't really know what that means and can't find anything in the settings or configuration about an "identify phase." I've tried disabling various metadata sources without seeing any change. Sometimes it works again if the book has an ISBN stored, but if I delete the ISBN the same book will go back to the 199 seconds.

When the identify phase breaks like that, cover downloads also take ages, and they don't seem to have a timeout - it will just spin endlessly, and the log only says that the search has begun.

What's going on? What can I do about this?

Below are logs from two of the broken searches:

Comments : <p>An astronaut who completed spacewalks on two Hubble missions tells his inspiring story in this middle grade adaptation of his bestselling adult memoir, Spaceman: An Astronaut's Unlikely Journey to Unlock the Secrets of the Universe. Fans of The Right Stuff and Apollo 13 will be thrilled by this astronaut's real life adventure.</p>

<p>From the time he was seven-years-old and saw Apollo 11 land on the moon, Mike Massimino dreamed of becoming an astronaut. Long Island is a long way from space. Kids like him, growing up in working-class families, seldom left the neighborhood. But with the encouragement of teachers and mentors, Mike ventured down on a path that took him to Columbia University and to MIT. It wasn't easy. There were academic setbacks and disappointments aplenty--and NASA turned him down three times. Still, Mike never gave up. He rose to each challenge and forged ahead, inching closer to realizing his boyhood dream. His love of science and space, along with his indomitable spirit and sense of teamwork eventually got him assigned to two missions to fix the Hubble Space Telescope--as a spacewalker. Spaceman takes readers on Mike's unlikely ride from Earth to space, showing the breathtaking wonder of science and technology along the way.</p>

<p>"Mike Massimino is a spaceman through and through. In this edition for young people, he tells us how hard work can take you out of this world. He believes in teamwork, and he never gives up. Prepare to be inspired.</p>

<p>" --BILL NYE, SCIENCE GUY and CEO, THE PLANETARY SOCIETY</p>

Comments : <p>Learn the NASA Astronaut mindset to solve problems, provide leadership in the face of adversity, and never give up when pursuing your wildest ambitions. * Mike Massimino achieved his dream of exploring space.* Now he distills stories and insights from NASA into an actionable guide to accomplish your biggest goals.* Mike reveals how to make possible the seemingly impossible—on Earth.* Written with characteristic wit and a big heart, Mike identifies ten hard-earned lessons of spaceflight and his other life experiences, including: • One in a Million Is Not Zero: The odds are against you. Do it anyway. • The Thirty-Second Rule: You’re going to make mistakes. Learn how to deal with them.• Be Amazed: The universe is an incredible place. Stop what you’re doing and look around. • Know When to Pivot: Change is inevitable. Accept and embrace it. We all have our own personal “moon shots” we’d like to take in life, but as mission control will tell you, doing one big thing really means getting a thousand little things right along the way. Moonshot is the book that will show you how to do just that, and help set you on the right path to achieve your own personal and professional dreams.</p>
