you have a local problem on your end or a mis configured bittorrent client - look at this :
at time of release, the DVD torrents were seeding ( for x86_64, i386 and ia64 together ) at over 1.3 GiB/sec.
its only grown from there. And almost everyone who's commented on it - has said that they have been able to saturate their links with the torrent ( eg. one guy on irc was leeching at 35MiB/sec earlier in the day today ... )
I find it hard to believe that in general terms, ftp would offer much better performance.
I do believe that something is wrong with the setup. I get torrent connection speeds that vary wildly from 10KB/sec to about 200KB/sec. FTP gets me about 1380KB/sec.
surely, these are not centos DVD image torrents you are talking about here ? if they are - can you give me some time scales as to when you had this sort of a speed issue ?
I've been experiencing similar speeds as those described by Jack all day today. The 4-CD torrent was really fast, but the one for the DVD has been much slower.
