Torrent = Slow
No matter which tracker or downloader you use
That is the main reason i never use torrents to download stuffs only go with an external source

Bascally it all depends on number of seeds your torrent file has. If it is a private tracker then surely its speed is going to be great. I use Desitorrent quite often and its download speed is very nice and almost comparable to HTTP downloads. Altohugh nothing beats HTTP downloads

You again?
I must disagree, good torrents are usually much faster than any http connections. Http downloads are limited by the speed of the server, while torrents can give you combined speed of the swarm of users.
If your throughput is more than the server's, you will notice the torrents to be faster.
All this is assuming that your isp is not "traffic shaping"
