I don't get why this bug is marked as invalid. At this moment
transmission neither honours the regular nor alternative speed limits.
And it's not about fine-tuning, either. As you can see in the attached
screencast the actual download rate is so far off from the configured
setting that this has to be a bug. The depicted rates also correspond
with the total rates reported by the System Monitor.

>Unless somebody can show definitively that transmission is not honoring
its own speed limits then I think this should probably be marked
invalid.

I hope this screencast will be proof enough to remove the 'invalid' flag
