Actually It has a lot do with your question I believe that you made a reference that since you've upgraded you've received less uploads.

As a file distributor I noticed since upgrading the downloads have been more streamlined. (which means I don't get clobbered with download request but instead I end up providing a constant stream of downloads.)

So, subjectively it would lead me to believe that I am receiving fewer downloads when in fact I am providing more successful downloads consistently.

This of course in constrast to have all of my upload slots on all of my servers full with people ATTEMPTING to download from me.

Please read the following post as more people take this advice and if your box has to push files out, your results could just be filtered on the searcher side. Which means that you will return results but will receive very few actual download requests as your results will not appear as a hit in the downloaders servent.

This information is being offered as a POSSIBILITY to your problem. So IMHO it has everything to do with your question/statements.
