Boldie,

With torrent's it's very important your firewall is set up correctly, especially if your using a hardware firewall/router.

Any misconfiguration will seriously hamper any torrent client download speed.

Changing between uTorrent / Azerus etc won't affect your speed much if at all.

Speed for torrents is mainly based on seeds and your ISP.

Usenet FTW.
