Possible to speed up connecting to peers?

Hi guys.

I have utorrent already setup and downloading opensuse, I can reach 11.6MB/s pretty much no problem. The thing is though, is that it takes a while to get to that speed. I know the seeds and bandwidth is available, but utorrent seems to take its time connecting to peers, maybe 30-60 seconds. On big files it's not so bad but I often download files in the region of 250-450mb, and they are usually complete before I get up to top speed.

Is there any way to speed this up?

Thanks

Hmm ok, I can see that side of things. The opensuse torrent I use in particular for testing, always has way more seeds than leechers. I don't know much about utorrent, but I would have thought they were able and ready to accept my connection.

Now looking in the advanced settings i see bt.connect_speed and net.max_halfopen. Do you think tweaking these will have a good effect, and what values would you start at for tuning?
