Pausing and unpausing the installation manager causes strange behaviour

The installation manager gets stuck in a loop on big files, this is well known.

Something else weird is happening now, where it will get stuck in a loop for a while, and I will pause it and unpause it and suddenly the amount downloaded changes dramatically.

For instance, unpausing suddenly adds 4 GB to the download total.

Is it giving this number in error? Has anyone else experienced this?
