How long have you been running the torrent for? The speed usually increases dramatically after running for about 10-15 minutes.

Remember, that if everyone on a torrent limits their upload speed. And everyone has a HIGH speed in downloading. Not everyone will reach their max speed. It depends on seed/leechers. And of course if your on private site :P
