Well, it might in that a lot of players will take them up because OMG SHINY NEW CLASS. To that extent, actually, when SE adds classes in the expansion, they need to be really careful about that - if the only new class is a DPS (or branched from a DPS) you're going to see the problem worsen.

DPS queue times have been sporadic for me. I've had them be significantly better sometimes - usually I'm not waiting long anymore. And then the other day I had too go do Sunken Temple as part of the main questline, and bam, 50 minute queue and I gave up to ask an FC-mate to queue with me as a healer to get us in almost instantly.
