uTorrent vs. Azureus

[Nepenthes]

My fav. is Azureus
utorrent...its too simple...

[justinius23]

definitely utorrent, it does everything i need it to and doesn't eat resources for breakfast. i started with azureus and while it is a good client it doesn't do anything (for me) that utorrent can't.

to finish: utorrent OWNS azureus

utorrent uses the least amount of memory according to my windows task manager. azureus took way too much

[necromantic]

azureus is a pig, hard on cpu and memory. Utorrent rocks

[forteagle]

are they still upgrading utorrent?

azureus is open source and more features that utorrent.

those who say azureus is a resource hog or cpu hog - either have a slow computer or do not have azureus setup correctly.

az uses 1 percent of my cpu and 144k of memory.

Azureus has plugins and until uTorrent does the same it will always be inferior. Stuffer for blocking bad clients is my favourite but there are dozens that I use.

As for resource hog, I have no issues running on a P2 550 with 768mb ram (just a shitbox I made out of spare parts).

For features you can't beat Azureus.

i have used azureus,bitcomet and utorrent.i like both bitcomet and utorrent.they both are equally good.but utorrent is the most lightest torrent client u can find

µTorrent is the sleekest client of them all, Ludde is doing a great job.

So quick to judge. For me, Azureus will take up 100+MBs cause I'm milking it for all it's worth.

I switched from Azureus to uTorrent for this reason and I was pleasantly suprised. I do have a problem though that nobody has mentioned. (this happened after my XP Pro laptop died and went to the Home Edition, otherwise it's pretty much the same, just a little upgrade) My computer slows way down because of uTorrent. I get a Disc Overloaded 100% notification on the bottom middle section. The FAQ says to change the Advanced settings and I've done that but I still get the disc overload. My question is: What are the best settings when you're downloading/uploading about 50 torrents at a top speed around 150k?

Thanks for any help!
