uTorrent -- bittorrent under 100K.

[mcovey]

http://utorrent.com/

µTorrent is an efficient and feature rich BitTorrent (http://www.bittorrent.com/) client for Windows sporting a very small footprint. It was designed to use as little cpu, memory and space as possible while offering all the functionality expected from advanced clients.

This torrent program seems to have all the best features of clients like azureus and ABC but is under 100K. IMO, it's the best small client available. I used to use arctic on my laptop, now I'll use this. Low memory footprint and decent speeds. I've never seen any client come close to the speed I get with azureus though, which can shoot up to 400-500K within seconds.

Still, a great small client, and it's always better to have more choice.

Nice simple client. Only missing dht.

Wow... this minimalistic approach would be nice to see from more developers. Microsoft *cough*

THIS GODDAMN CLIENT IS AN AZUREUS CLONE

Go to hell with your crap. Just look at the interface and the "transfer" area, it's exactly like Azureus.

Welcome to the world of open-source. Borrowing some of the best features from azureus and putting them into a miniamlistic client is a great idea. So ply your uneducated ranting elsewhere..

[Betamax]

Been using this for about a week now. Seems to have everything I liked about Azureus without the the feeling that my system's being stangled.

DHT support is slated for the 1.1.8 release.

I have followed this client since 1.1.3, and the only thing I think is missing is per torrent upload slot control.

You're right its almost exactly like Azureus except this uses .014% of the RAM Azureus uses.

[serrebi101]

hahahahaha they copy a gui and people think it's a rip of azureus.
lol
to fucking funny.
<Sarcasm>OMFG!!!!1111!!!! I guess this means ares is/was a clone of kazaa!</Sarcasm>
With that out of the way...
Utorrent is a great bt client, has been my bt client of choice for almost 2 months now... UPload slot options are there under network I believe.

You can tweak the Advance settings to make a disk cache for example if your hard drive is grinding during a fast download. And add more connections and whatever .

Yup, I know. Many of those options are documented, and I played with them a little. Even if you disable slow-connect and low-cpu, azureus still connects to peers faster.

This client did get ban by a few trackers, but the new one 1.3 or whatever fixed the issues that private sites was reporting to it. And i think its probably gonna be the best choice for anyone starting out. Ill stick with abc3.0 Simply because all the ports are forwarded and dont have to tinker with anything on it.

Upnp port forwarding works perfectly with utorrent.

[serrebi101]

yes, although if you want to stick with abc, by all means do so. It's a nice client nonetheless.

Version 1.2 of µtorrent is now available and includes mainline DHT support.

[maynoth]

I get max speeds 320Kbps after about 30 seconds... did a little tweaking in the advanced options to allow it to have more resources.. (uninstalls bitcomet) can't wait for nat transversal and all the best features from all the other clients to be added..

I must say, this program has one me over! The newest version, 1.3 is the best yet and if the releases keep comming out every other week, we will see it take over as the best bittorrent client - hands down!
