  My understanding is that selective downloading
  is slower because TB! has to go thru all the
  headers first, then select & then d/l.

  In the above scenario TB! is doing it twice. Its
  a fine solution but as an academic question, I
  wonder if there really are any *practical*
  differences between a selective download [once
  or twice] & a single download with filter
  actions attached.

  Got any idea about that?

  TIA
