as oscar says your sources are dropping in and out constantly due to factors that aren't totally clear to me. network congestion possibly playing with the algorithm. add that to the fact that one or more of your hosts' bandwidth goes up and down due to demand and you've got non linear downloads.

keep an eye on the bottom where your actual hosts are displayed and when you see one who's fast browse his files. once you get him directly you should at least stay as fast as he is.

if it's raw speed you want there are faster networks, but they're more limited in selection. shareaza is getting interesting. this is the client/network to watch. could become wide and deep - as well as fast.

- js.
