Did some searching myself, and found this info from various posts:
Edit /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/BitTorrent/download.py like so:
defaults = [
('max_uploads', 4,
"the maximum number of uploads to allow at once."),
... and
('max_upload_rate', 8,
'maximum kB/s to upload at, 0 means no limit'),
or
use --max_upload_rate <n> and --max_uploads <n> from the CLI.
Also, make sure ports 6881 to 6999 are open on any router/NAT/firewall you've
got running.
