Scenario 1: Torrent has no seeders - not even archive.org
Post a comment to the item's page. This will cause archive.org to create a new torrent.
Scenario 2: torrent is excruciatingly slow
On the right side of the item's page is a "Show All" button.
click on it, and wa-la - all the files in the torrent are present - and right-clickable and "save as"-able.
Scenario 3: still excruciatingly slow
Get a download manager with Resume (they all do!)
Repeat as above, but this time, load all the links into the download manager and go make some tea, or pasta, or resolve Einstein's theory with Quantum Mechanics.
