Jumpy download speeds

[vodkaholic27]

Hey all, ive been testing my leeching speed with Deluge for sometime now and

I got a hold of the ubuntu torrent and tested leeching it (with it been a super fast torrent)
I leeched it with utorrent and I maxed out all the way to the end (about 6.3mb) am limited to 50mb after ive leeching so much so this is what I was basing it on (not my normal 100mb)

now deluge

it was going at about 2mb than jumped to 4mb than back and forth over and over again to the end

This is my "net speed graph"

See what I mean "up and down up and down up and down etc..." all the time
anyone else had problems like this?
Cheers

I am guessing that is due to the bittorent protocol throttling download speed because you have capped/maxed out your upload speed.

Upload is set to half my max upload speed

Is this what you mean?

(also cas I think you need to turn on daylight savings mode in phpbb its saying its 12.25am but its 1.25am )

Yes. Any limits applied to upload will affect download speed and the graph you are seeing resembles backing off of download speed by bittorrent.
