That is pretty abysmal. What's your broadband speed in general. Have you tried to use DownThemAll firefox plugin, this is what I use and speeds most downloads up.

My connection is a 25 Mb/sec fiber optic line. I test it regularly and generally see results in the 23-25 Mb/sec range. I'm using Safari 7.0.5 on a new Mac Pro running OSX 10.9.4. Downloads from other sites generally show speeds in the 2-5 MB/sec range which I find acceptable. On FemJoy the first GB of downloads in a day is in that range and then the rate starts dropping. This is the only site where I've seen this behavior. Some other sites will lock you out for a while if you exceed some limit. This site seems to gradually throttle down the speed. I've seen it go as low as 20 KB/sec. I'm in touch with their tech support, but no resolution yet.
I haven't tried to use FireFox till now. I just downloaded two photo zips with FireFox. FirFox doesn't report the download speed. Activity Monitor seems to be reporting speeds similar to Safari.

I'm facing the exact same issue. I have a very fast internet connection but the download speed on femjoy totally sucks. I escalated this issue to their support with basically no outcome. At this point I'm rather disappointed about this fact and their reaction!!!
