First, the uploader code has not really been changed between 2.7 and 2.8. It's almost impossible that you see a reduced performance with uploads.

Not reduced. I've been seeing the same terrible upload performance at least since the 2.6 series.

Uploads are possible, but you will not see many if you are sharing files that are very common on gnutella or if you are sharing files nobody wants.

I am seeing many, many, many attempted uploads. The speed on any upload in progress never exceeds 1kB/s. The uploads all eventually fail on their own (or are cancelled by the downloader). And these exact files aren't available elsewhere, so the downloaders can't swarm from multiple sources.

Besides, LimeWire removes uploads from the upload tab if they are completed or if they fail.

Unless you uncheck the auto-clear checkbox, as I've done, and look at the "Uploads" column in the Library, as I've done.
As much as I'd like to pretend that there isn't a problem, things really have deteriorated. I'm not pointing my finger at 2.8 in particular, but something is definitely wrong with LimeWire on Mac OS X.
