    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.

    guys, looking for a bt client that:

    open source (must)
    high performance and low memory usage (top priority! dht, peer exchange, lpd not needed)

    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).

    I thought rTorrent is a backend lib/package so turns out it's a program for enduser too? time to see what it is exactly and what qb added to it, thanks anon!

    • 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

    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.

    Irrespective of platform, if you aren't willing to deal with terminal windows, editing configuration files and reading documentation, rTorrent isn't for you.

    My favourites are tixati and qbittorrent. I also use rtorrent with rutorrent GUI.

    When you get time please write a good command line rtorrent usage tutorial for us. I get confused when i read all the commands.

    I can't think of anything not already mentioned in the official documentation, which by the way is very thorough and regularly updated.

    https://github.com/rakshasa/rtorrent/wiki

    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.
