X86_64 DVD Install. I dropped the max connections and have slowly bumped 
it up from there. Its at 350 now, so I'm now getting 500K/s. Not really 
sure what was going on, when I looked at the peer/seeder list, there 
were lots and lots of connections, but 0K up/down. I figured if I 
dropped the number of connections maybe deluge would perhaps keep the 
ones sending stuff a bit better... Not really sure what's going on but 
its much better than the 8-20K I was getting.
