Tor network connections constantly building / failing

[Joe Btfsplk]

  Recently noticed Tor being slower than usual & network map shows MANY 
new connections building, then failing VERY quickly. (within a sec or 
so).  Does this constantly - one connection after another.  Using 
Vidalia 0.2.1.26-0.2.9;  Torbutton 1.2.5.

Sometimes there are at least 3 connections open - sometimes not.  1st 
time I've seen this.

Did close Vidalia / Tor, Polipo, Firefox 3.6.10 & Torbutton, the restart 
- couple of times - no change.
During the connection, for brief times, D/L speeds may get up to 
"normal" for me - but not for long.

Anyone noticed this or have suggestions?  Thanks.
