Unhappy Dwindling hosts....

I am using the freeware version of Limewire 2.2.1, and it doesn't seem to be working as well as the previous version that I was using (1.8c). I can never seem to connect to more than 2,500 hosts (the older Limewire version could get up to as much as 10,000 on occasion), and it seems very unstable in holding the hosts (i.e. one minute there's 1,700, then I enter a search and it drops down to 600, etc.). As a consequence, I don't get nearly the number of results as I once did. Also, it looks like users who are trying to upload from me are having a difficult time connecting and staying connected. Am I doing something wrong?

I am using a 400 MHz Macintosh G4 with 256MB of RAM...I am on a network (no firewall) with a T1 connection.

P.S. I just switched back to version 1.8c and I'm having the same problem, so I think that would indicate my preferences are screwed up or something...anyone know?
