uTorrent vs. Azureus

[ronc289]

azureus is like a swiss army torrent client but hogs memory especially in a mac (use azureus when i'm on my mac) utorrent on the other hand uses less memory and it is noticable when you start opening more applications.

i don't get much of this!! but surely can wait to understand all this and get watheva i want...

neva used azureus but from wat i heard its not so good..
i will stick with utorrent for now..(it seems to be eating up all my speed does azureus do the same ???)

Yes they are both good speed wise but if you like things that dont use much resources then i would stick with Utorrent.Also make sure you got to options,preferences,network and enable protocol encryption it will help you out and help out the whole community as well.

problem with utorrent is : sometimes the queue got lost somehow, so i have to start queueing the torrent file again

Utoreent is the best.

i've been using azureus for 2 years when utorrent came along...

my first thoughts: why did it take so long for such a fine client to show up.
i was thinking azureus was the best out there, but no, its not even in the same league as utorrent.

first of all, gosh... 20-30% of cpu constantly? wtf? who really needs java?
okay, its got alot of features and stuff, but bear in mind that this is a "passive" program, ppl use the pc while running az, and have no need for their ressources to be wasted in java.

utorrent is slim, really fast file rechecking, no java therefore no ressource burden, and does an overall nice job. i admit, it's not perfect and lacks some of the features azureus has, but it's much newer than az and already extremely popular.

my 2cents
