I have never, ever, seen a line at the Denon Wing entrance. You can find this on a map at the Louvre website. This entrance has a ticket window (with human clerks) and a check room. One huge advantage of using this entrance if you want to check your belongings is being able to exit from wherever, then just walk across the courtyard and pick up your things. Note this entrance has limited hours, though, so be sure to check the Louvre website.

I've never waited in line at the Porte des Lions. (I don't know if that's the same entrance as the aforementioned Denon Wing.)
Porte des Lions does have different hours then the main entrance. For example it is currently closed on Fridays.

I found the little map on their website, but can't find a Denon Wing, found the Porte des Lions.
I guess we will try and find current door's opening and closing times and just scoot around to an entrance.
I see the Louvre is open late on Weds and Fri nights, maybe that would be a good idea.
