Make sure that you are seeding random blocks instead of serial. That way peers who have a different block will exchange among themselves rather than waiting for you to provide each and every piece.

This is the default behavior for most torrent clients. The only time it is not, is when the downloader on the other end has their torrent client manually set to download the torrent sequentially.
