Well, Firefox and Thunderbird just run in the background, and every few 
minutes I check them to see if anything interesting has been added :)

The POV renders are, as I said, animations that will probably run for 
several more hours.  As each one finishes, it'll make more CPU time 
available for the others, so they should finish faster, et cetera.

Likewise, CloneDVD (which has now finished) and Handbrake (which has 
not) are background tasks.

So, that leaves UT3Ed, which was nearly unusable.  So, I took a break 
from it to give Handbrake a chance to finish encoding, and played some 
flash games on the web (which I found were almost as CPU intensive as UT3!)
