Firefox maintain an internal queue of network requests and limits max. number of concurrent requests, if there is more requests executed at the same time, some of them are delayed/queued.
The "Queuing" time shows when these reqeustes have been within this queue. You can see this behaviour nicely on the following page: http://stevesouders.com/cuzillion/?c0=bi1hfff2_0&c1=bi1hfff2_0&c2=bi1hfff2_0&c3=bi1hfff2_0&c4=bi1hfff2_0&c5=bi1hfff2_0&c6=bi1hfff2_0&c7=bi1hfff2_0 The page loads 8 images (the same size), you can see that six images is requested at the same time, while the last two a bit later.
