 |

Hi
Anyone using Azureus & can compare the pros, cons, with Utorrent please
http://azureus.sourceforge.net/
Azureus implements the BitTorrent protocol using java language and comes bundled with many invaluable features for both beginners and advanced users:
* Multiple torrent downloads
* Upload and download speed limiting, both globally and per torrent
* Advanced seeding rules
* Adjustable disk cache
* Only uses one port for all the torrents
* UPnP sets the forward on your router
* Can use a proxy, for both tracker and peer communications * Fast resume
* Can set a default download dir and move completed files * Can import torrents automatically from a set dir * Highly customizable interface
* IRC plugin included for quick help
* Embedded tracker, host your own torrents, automate your shares (periodic scanning of a dir)...
* Distributed Hash Table: host on it a completely decentralised torrent and/or benefit from it when the tracker is offline.
Many useful plugins are available:
* Auto-adjustment of your upload and download speeds according to your network charge with Autospeed
* Auto-download torrents with RSS Feed Scanner * Schedule upload and download speed limits with Speed Scheduler * Receive a mail when a download finishes with Status Mailer * Add numerous info on torrents (Extra seeding columns, Country Locator)
* Remote control Azureus through the Swing Web Interface or the HTML Web Interface |

A quite good torrent client, but I don't like java interface and other things about it.
Pros:
- downloads start faster than uTorrent
- open source
Cons:
- ugly interface
- very high RAM usage
- less stable than uTorrent
Kindly regards. |

That one must be new. It wasn't there when I tried Az a couple of years ago. That's why I dropped it ... couldn't get it to work.
I've been using Bit Comet instead. No set up whatsoever. Just download a torrent directly into Bit Comet (from a web browser, or from Bit Comet's built-in browser) and off you go. Very easy. |

| I have used Azureus & thought it was pretty good until I used utorrent. The main reason I like utorrent is that it uses very little memory while downloading, allowing you to use your computer for other things while downloading. |
