jsjrodman: I wanted to do something else with my intertubes, so i clicked Pause on the galaxy client. 20 minutes later, it was still downloading away. I run a bandwidth measurement tool (netbalancer) so I can see that it never reduced the quantity it was downloading in the entire 20 minute period, and when I "unpaused", the amount downloaded magically shot up by 20 minutes worth of downloading.

jsjrodman: Done, though I hope you won't be asking for operating system configuration dumps, logs etc. Just change the code to handle pause asynchronously.
