what is wrong with that? (normally, few seeders -> low speed)

I am not familiar with k torrent. But I have used bit torrent. May be the number in the bracket means the maximum numbers of seeds. That means if it says y(x) - currently only y seeds are available out of x seeds. Remaining guys may not be seeding now.
