I2P: End-to-End encrypted and anonymous Internet

I remember I2p torrents being horrendously slow, like 20kbps at max(do you even remember the last time someone used kbps as units?) for popular stuff. Has that changed in the last few years?

I get on the regular up to 200-500kbps depending on number of peers, and their router configuration (I have my bandwidth configured above the defaults, which are very low).

I understand that is unheard of from someone living in the "instant access era" but their protocol has a cost.

Hm. Regular torrents tend to touch the 100 Mbps to gpbs range - so not really an alternative?
