Try increasing the limit(eg 10KB/s) or disabling "apply rate limit to transport overhead".
The bittorrent protocol needs to send out control packets to other peers that help coordinate your download. So if those can't get out you cannot fully utilise you downstream.

Does "don't help much"

Mean:
A: Nothing changed?

B: Something changed?

If it was option B: Please explain what it was. Until you explain precisely 'we' are not going to know.
