I got high speed also. Don't forget to be nice torrent citizens and
leave it on until you have a ratio greater than 1.00 or you uploaded as
much as you downloaded.

I am using an old machine (433 MHz 256 MB RAM) running Ubuntu 9.04 for
the torrent and am uploading up to 374 kB/s in bursts. (Most of the time
it is around 100kB/s) I have close to my maximum 60 uploads going on at
the same time. I will probably let it run for a few days.
