Let's see: firewall disabled (I know, I know...), ADSL router with NAT on SUA only, ports opened (Bittorrent-gui says "Running normally" - otherwise it would say "Firewalled" or something like that). And my average performance is 2 to 3 Kbps with peak performance being 9 to 10 Kbps on download and upload averaging 8 to 10 with peaks of 15. I don't know of any other configuration I might tweak. This performance is consistent with my standard ftp or http performance. So, I see no advantage in using torrents. That's my point.
