I don't know a whole lot about torrents but I do know you should seed you torrent to at least a 1:1 ratio (and I usually try to seed to a 1:2+ ratio) but I can't seed certain torrents!

Some torrents will download super fast (<350 kB/s) then become inactive after completion and I can't seed them at all (even if I force start it and leave BT open for days).

Other torrents download very slow (>30kB/s), download and upload/seed at the same time. And I can seed these torrents as long as I want. For example, the torrent I'm currently DLing has a faster upload than DL rate. It's 3.7 GB, it's 5.7% done and its ratio is 0.989. It says it'll take a week to finish downloading.

Does it have to do with torrent health? Why can't a seed the fast-downloading torrents? Why is the other one so slow (not that I really mind much). I just don't want to be a leeching douche D:
