Need a better torrent client

[straightv6]

Right now I'm using qBittorrent but it doesn't seed very well. I have to pause a connection in order for it to connect with new peers.

What else is out there?

I thought that was a windows program. I would rather not have to run Wine.

 

[Brinson]

It is. If you don't want to use wine just use Azureus.

yeah azureus has been the best one ive tried. bitlord and bitcomet are virtually the same, and utorrent has a better memory footprint than azureus, which uses up loads of CPU if your on a slow computer. thing with azureus is you need java runtime, and i dont know if linux supports that or not...

 

[Brinson]

Java is very functional in linux

Java apps can be ran on all the major OS with little/no changes to the code at all.

my favorite by far is Ktorrent

when i first used it, i was so impressed, i tried to find a windows version, but there isn't one.

Odd, I used ktorrent and went to look for a linux version of utorrent

I'm addicted to utorrent..
