In the ideal world, minimal queuing is what we always aim for. However inbound aircraft waiting for your stand, or pressure for an "on schedule" departure - where this means off-blocks rather than airborne - results in more aircraft taxying than is necessary to acheive the ultimate runway utilisation. When the limited remote parking is already occupied, I'm afraid you'll end up queueing somewhere, unless you want to delay the arrival of the aircraft (company?!) waiting for your stand, or you can withstand the pressure from company for an "on-schedule departure"!
