My download speed was wildly inconsistent, varying between 5K/s and
170K/s.  I restarted it today (after Ward's request) and even upload
speeds vary quite a bit (12K/s to over 40K/s).  I suspect it has a lot
to do with how the file is downloaded.  If you are trying to get a part
of the file that not many other people have already gotten, then it
seems likely that your download will slow.
