I did 16 for i2psnark. what should i do for biglybt? or do i just check-mark automatic there? how many hops in biglybt?

I already mentioned it as 3:3 [3 tunnels & 3 hops] maybe I will change tunnels to highest possible
torrent was well seeded with 10 seeders and 6 leechers

I read up on the internet but there are many conflicting reports about it. But basic premise is 3:3 ratio to download torrents. But torrents speeds are lower 180KBps maxx.
I read here[discuss.i2p] that torrents give speeds of 400-800 KBps from one peer. But torrents I am downloading are not reaching that speed. What am I doing wrong? How to correct it and get those kinds of speeds?
