2. The priority/queueing of downloads were for some reason out of sync and skipping a few numbers... it would skip numbers. ie: 1..3..4..5..7 etc.. i wish i took a screenshot of it.
This is normal - depending on the number of free upload slots you have and how active the other side is, the downloader at position 2 may sometimes get ahead of that at position 1. Nothing to worry about.

4. I noticed an upload that kept going frm 95% to 100% about 10+ times before killing the connection to avoid wasting bandwidth for other uploaders.
It is possible that the data was just getting corrupted along the way, or the downloader was buggy. Its also possible the other side got different hash tree for the file.

5. I noticed an upload that was crossing over 100%.. screen shot:
The progress displayed depends on how much data the other side claims to have downloaded. It doesn't mean that you have uploaded more than 100% to them. (i.e. they could very well lie)
