I need a good torrent program that can queue, manage multiple torrents, automatically set priorities, and know when to stop bothering with bad torrents. Currently using Turbo Torrent, but I'd like something better if it exists.

From what I've seen, most are rather similar in features. It's more a question of how much memory you have to spare and what kind of interface you like.

Console bittorrent using btdownloadcurses.py is where it's at.

I'm not sure about all these issues regarding Azureus hogging cpu, but my computer remains completely functional when using it.
I recommend it.

Azureus is most flexible, it's coded in Java ;d explains why it drains memory, but it's got everything you need. ABC is lighter, and nice client for just having it work.. but gotta go with azureus if you want the options, you geek.

azureus has tons of crap enabled by default, like upnp (hmm)
only load azureus and do a netstat... or get fport
way too much shit going on for simple bt client

OMG why the f*** do ya need torrents to slow your pc or eat even little of them.. bitcomet is the one that works with no lag on all pc's(well dunno for 233mhz ;]) but anyways it has all the commands ya need for torrent leechin' or maybe seedin' too. Azureus doesn't even need the whole crap that is loaded for 5 min's on my pc ;|

Get a better pc, cause it doesn't lag on my duron 1.1 with 512mb of ram.

BitComet hands down, no reliance on the JRE or python libraries - written entirely in C++ and has all of the necessary features.

2005; still using a GUI'd torrent client.
libtorrent/rtorrent 0.7.0-1/0.3.0 - written entirely in C++ and places the least amount of load on your pc possible.
Catch up with the times, fags. This shit released like 15 days ago!
For as Mac-like and unresponsive as it can be, I actually like Transmission's Web interface.
The command-line tools are a bit of a mess. I get that I'm running a daemon and controlling it with a separate program, but it's confusing knowing when to use transmission-daemon, transmission-remote, transmission-cli or the init.d start-up script (/etc/init.d/transmission-daemon on my machine). Not to mention that last one seems to run as root or some special user during init, but I can no longer access it from my ordinary account. I need to kill the existing process then rerun /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon start myself. No idea when this started but I'm too lazy to fix it.
