I just found out, seems like the disk overloaded in utorrent is somekind of safety protocol to prevent the program from being crashed. I noticed that if the speed start to increased to a certain number then at one point the disk became overloaded and the speed just drop a little bit. But before this I tried to overwrite the buffer with 512 or 1024 and it has caused utorrent just shutdown itself.
I tried & tried so many disk cache option, and finally found this good settings for my VPS with 512MB RAM and Win 2003 Server. With this settings I could download at 5MB/s without cause any problem

Upgrade to a dedicated then jk....
VPS is shared either by 5 or by 3 depend on the service you purchased. Because it's shared with another VPS, maybe at the time you reached 6MB/s up & down at the same time, other users that shared in the same nod didn't use the traffice too much. But now they use it a lot, that's why your down & up are so slow.
I'm on VPS that shared by 5, at sometime my upload could go down to 100KB/s, but some other time it could reach until 3MB/s

ok then i uderstand is there any way so i can fix that disk overload that is only annoying thing in the uTorrent should i switch to other client or something..

[fstokebanget]

you can fix that, but basiclly it's a trial & error, you must try various number of possibility before find the correct setting for your system
I plan to move to rtorrent, I suggest you use that in your seedbox like others
