no it just means that someone has queued up requests for all your songs... Gnutella's protocol doesn't allow for remote queuing (well it may allow for it but non of the clients have and sort of remote queuing) So as a result the only way to d/l a lot of files over time is to repeatedly send the requests. All of the clients do it, after X seconds a new request to d/l is sent to the other client. Really they other person isn't trying to hammer your system they are just attempting a setup and forget thing for themselves. So this way they can put all of the files into a queue and then walk away and hopefully they all d/l. I personally watch my d/l's and make sure that if I'm hammering one person alot I lower the number of files I can d/l and make it so it queue's locally, but there are time when if all I want is one file I'll let Limewire go crazy on retries. Don't worry about it, it's not going to kill your bandwidth or anything... it just fills that list up really quickly...
