Is there any way to speed up torrent downloads

ABC works just as well (or better, IMO) ...

The way it works is you get put on a list. Depending on how much you upload, your priority dictates how high or low on the list you go.

The seeds all concentrate on one person (or at least a few). So that some people will get 500kb/s and yer getting 20 ...

If you just wait long enough you'll get'ch0re turn and things will fly.

btw make sure you open a port range (any.. just change it within preferences) and forward it past your router or things will go really slow.
 
Or maybe the priority is determined by how much you download?
I'm not really sure, now...

But I know that it works similar to the way I described. It's not a 'spread throughout the network' thing. :x not completely.
