I assure you it's not caused by lack of peers. My guess is SE is doing some sort of dumb region based peer filtering i.e. they might be limiting your potential peer downloads to only a few people in your area.

A regular torrent client will exchange peer info with others regardless of what the tracker decides so they can't stop you from downloading from everyone around the world.
