[The UnUsual Suspect]

By running five torrents, you are providing very little upload to any of them.

The main reason torrents run slow is when people run multiple torrents, without enough upload bandwidth to support them.

Also, finding the best settings for your client while running one torrent is hard enough, and when you add more torrents, it becomes infinately more complicated.

One torrent at a time, while proplerly configured, will be a much better way to go, and you will be helping the swarm, rather then harming it.

regarding your settings, I assume your connection is limited to 30kB/s, and you set max to 25kB/s?

If you can upload faster then 30kB/s, then you will need to increase your max setting, if you cannot upload at 30, then you need to lower.

A good way to test your max upload is to run one torrent that is very active, and lots of peers. Set max upload to unlimited, and see how high it goes, then set limit to 80%

When you confirm setting are correct, download one of these open office torrents, and see what speeds you are able to get.
