Slow download, but finishes quickly

Lately I've seen some strange behavior from SAB. I will occasionally download an nzb for a file that is larger, say 800MB. The download moves incredibly slowly, like at 250 B/s, the status remains idle despite the slow download, and yet the download finishes in less than 30 seconds. The file will end up being very small and SAB will give a "download failed, out of server retention?" message even if the file is only a few days old.

This is a fairly recent pattern. It doesn't happen with all files, but it does happen predictably with the same nzb. Anyone have any idea what's going on?
