Stalling at 0mb/s occasionally

Sorry if this is answered already...

Sabnzbd 0.7.20 stalls while downloading on certain posts, everything looks normal but the download speed drops to 0mb/s forever. Restarting the service or server does nothing. I think these articles are out of retention. The fix is simply to drag them lower in the queue and the next download starts immediately. I can drag them back to the top and the download drops back down to 0mb/s and will sit there forever until I do something.

Usually if a post is out of retention, the download will fail and it will show it in the history... which is what I want it to do.

Is there a fix for this?

Waiting for a servers to tell an article is missing, takes time.
The best thing to do is enable the option "Abort jobs that cannot be completed" in Config->Switches.
That way, a job is abandoned sooner.
