I never used uTorrent for more than a day each time, using VEM for 4-5 years now.
but I voted for uTorrent.
if I didn't need to cheat, I would use uTorrent for sure.

i use utorrent all the time never think of trying something else as i do such fine with it
uTorrent... what else.
guys, looking for a bt client that:
open source (must)
high performance and low memory usage (top priority! dht, peer exchange, lpd not needed)
linux win mac supported (preferably)
besides Tr, qB and picotorrent, any other brilliant ones worth mentioning pls? have googled a lot just wanna be sure any less known good one isnt missed.
This describes rTorrent perfectly... and yes, Windows and Mac ports exist.
If performance is of critical importance, you could go one step farther and compile it yourself with custom CFLAGS (hint: march and mtune for your hardware, and -O3 isn't always better).
- rTorrent - a terminal-based client.
- libTorrent (uppercase "T") - the library that powers it, also known as rakshasa.
- libtorrent (lowercase "t") - a different library that powers other clients (including qBt), also known as rasterbar.
- ruTorrent ("r", then "u") - a graphical interface for rTorrent and perhaps the most popular one.
Hope that clarifies things :happy:
Ask your favorite search engine about "rTorrent on Windows" (I know, I couldn't believe it either), or clone the Git repository and compile it under Cygwin. Chances are someone's made a Docker container too.
i found one, it's from someone's post in reddit. and refer to this link

it could be a nightmare for noobs like me
Irrespective of platform, if you aren't willing to deal with terminal windows, editing configuration files and reading documentation, rTorrent isn't for you.
I can't think of anything not already mentioned in the official documentation, which by the way is very thorough and regularly updated.

In any case, I don't expect most people to be using it without a GUI, nor would I do so myself. A console interface is too unwieldy and suboptimal for a torrent client.
for me it's qbittorrent
