wooow ... all of you have suggested uTorrent and its mainly because its small and consumes less RAM.

I use Utorrent as its a faster client and it easy too.
As pretty much everyone has said uTorrent should be on the top of your list, it is a very efficient and light torrent client unlike Vuze for example which takes a good chop of your memory without having the need for that.
Just wondering, but do download and upload speeds change based on the client you use? I use uTorrent as well, due to it's small size, but I'm wondering if it even matters on download speeds and such.
Ill take rtorrent any day over ktorrent. Actually i would take rtorrent over any torrent client. The only time i use utorrent is when im using Windows. I hate the whole utorrent + wine crap anymore, but i agree with everyone else. If u dont have Linux then the best client is by far uTorrent.
I only use rtorrent on my linux seedboxes. It's very efficient as a torrent application because it doesn't use as much system calls to the operating system thus, reducing the amount of read/write requests to the disk drive. As you know the more disk activity the less the system is gonna be responsive. I've never had any crashing issues when loading hundreds of torrents, unlike transmission-cli which core dumps on me all the time. I just wish there's a much better way of daemonizing rtorrent instead of using screen to attach/detach the process into/from the background. I don't like screen because it sometimes crashes randomly, and besides that, it adds up to the memory usage when combined with rtorrent. On windows however, I'd choose mewtorrent(utorrent) just like eveyone else. It's very small in size so you only use a very small amount of memory --helpful if you have a low-end PC.
