utorrent. azureus is such a resource hog in comparison.

Booo! It's written in Java and horribly slow. BitComet or uTorrent are much faster.

It's a very tiny program, less than 200 KB if I remember correctly; yet it's stable and fully-featured. It doesn't need an install; one runs the executable directly. So it takes almost no resources at all and runs silently in the background.

Heck, I can run it in my parents' ancient PIII 64MB RAM Toshiba notebook without a hitch when I go over to visit them.
