Not now because I've just had a crash and my queue is now empty.

And probably not quite that many previously - but yes, I have a fairly large download queue.

I tend to (try to) download larger files. If a file doesn't download in one session (and 600MB rarely does) then it can be a long wait before the host is available again. The vast majority of the time only a handful of files are available at a time - the rest either have no hosts available or the hosts are heavily accessed and trying to get a download slot is nigh on impossible.

I also find that I have a lot of the same file in the queue (or in my incomplete directory) but with slightly different names (It would be nice if people didn't rename files). When I've finally get a file down, I delete the other aliases, but in the mean time, I try to get them all (Yes, this is a waste of bandwidth - Yes, I'm looking forward to a hashing implementation that will fix this).
