It is a great straight forward program but not sure how it compares to others (I'm a basic user), particularly wit respect to memory usage. I love it because it makes torrent searches ridiculously easy. Any chance of including this in the 2010 evaluation, or do a quickie now? :) http://www.xtorrentp2p.com/ Having said that, I will give transmission a try. Cheers!

It will download and even prefer encrypted clients, but does not encrypt uploads. Also the upload and download speeds in Transmission are very misleading. If for example you set a max download of 50kps, it will say it is running at a constant 50kps, but the actual download, and the network monitor do not support this. uTorrent is still too clunky on OS X. I will also give VUSE a shot, although I am waiting for Deluge 1.2 to be released as a native Mac program.....it is under development! Transmission only half supports encryption.

I'd use uTorrent but that doesn't allow you to move completed torrents to a different folder (yet). Maybe I'll give VUSE a shot... I find that Transmission constantly hangs on my system.

I myself am using Ubuntu and despite there are other Linux solutions, I prefer uTorrent. It works perfect under Wine. A lightweight and fast Bittorrent client, I like it :) Nice roundup!
