At the end, you only need 2 or 3 more pieces, and you happen to be getting them from the worst hosts in the torrent. You’ve been getting those pieces from those slow people for a long time…and will continue to do so. Disconnect, then reconnect and hope a better host takes over the last few pieces.

If you’re downloading the newest episode of House MD, for example, and you have like a gazillion seeders, chances are you won’t notice a slowdown all the way.
However, if it’s not a popular torrent, there’s only a handful of seeders, the original uploader isn’t around or has a slow connection, then you can have trouble downloading the last few pieces. Which is why it will slow down towards the end.

eMule (the “ancestor” of torrent, classic pvp app) has this too. I would get full speed for like 95%, then the rest takes like forever.

It’s not really noticeable unless the file is huge or you have slow speeds tho.

Then it goes very slowly until about 90% at which point it jumps up to 100% and then stops for another 10% of the load time before it completes.

They do it on Graph Jam because there are no avatars here. Any of the other linked Sites around here would show a different avatar for each of the trolls posting as “Todd,” thus ruining the illusion that they are all the same person. We are on to you now, “Todd.” You can stop trolling here.
