my ut 3.1.3 runninghere is taking 20mb of ram, in an era of 4gb RAM being normal……what is all this talk of bloatware? If a program has features you dont personally use, its BLOATWARE now?

Entitled idiots. Enjoy your security holes, shitty private tracker dictatorships and no updates. OBT and PBT should ban your IPs for being morons.

YMMV.

I’m a bit of a minimalist. I like my tools to be dedicated and without multiple redundancy. And then of course there’s the fact that Vuze runs on Java. That to me means it wastes resources and is slow to start. It was fine when azureus was still a minimalist applet but now? For me that’s a question of aesthetics.

For linux transmission is (for me) a better option – for windows, uTorrent.

Vuze has the benefit of being open source, of course which makes the platform ostensibly a lot better than uTorrent security-wise. If uTorrent keeps going the bloatware route, I may decide to shop for something new again.

You can take that as a highly personal opinion. On most mid/high-end rigs you could run two boxes with vuze churning happily away in each bottle without noticing the performance hit. It’s a matter of preference, since torrent clients by and large have similar functionality.
