bittorrent performance is determined by a lager number of factores, the=20
least of which is the OS.  Things like time of day, number of active=20
peers, and certainly not least the protocol implementation play a much=20
bigger role than TCP performance.

Compare downloading over HTTP for a comparable benchmark, or at very least=
=20
use the same bittorrent implementation.
