Do you mean the bit torrent program itself? If so, it's okay, but I much prefer bit comet because it is written in c not java or python so it takes up alot less ram than something like azurius. Furthermore, with the generic bit torrent program, I don't think you can change the ports you are using to upload/download or limit your speeds. My ISP has throttled ports 6881 to 6889 so using the generic would be out of the question.

BitComet doesn't honour the private flag in torrents, and because of that it's been banned from most private trackers, though if you're on public trackers I guess it doesn't matter that much.

BitLord is one of the worst IMO, it's a clone of BitComet and has spyware, doesn't support DHT or protocol encryption and is windows only.

My favorite is (or should I say 'the one I least hate') is µTorrent. It's rather small, or started out as so, but have become more and more bloated and full of unnecessary eyecandy. And the main developer, ludde, doesn't want to release the source, so no one can fix all those downsides with µTorrent. And another thing is that it's Windows exclusive.

Azureus on the other hand is Java and bloatware * 100, though it has a -very- wide usability, runs on many OS's (since it's Java), and supports all the major BT functions.

If you're on *nix / POSIX with a low-end computer, my recomendation would be rTorrent, which works to get good performance and code. The only downside of it is that it doesn't support DHT (yet), peer exchange or protocol encryption. Though none of these problems are that big if you only hangs on private trackers. Public on the other hand is not an option for rTorrent, since it's vital to have those three options supported.

BitTorrent / Mainline (original client) has too few featues and use one window for each torrent, same as BitTornado, which isn't that good if you have ~10 or more torrents downloading / seeding at the same time.

utorrent can be run with wine.

azureus needs at least 1GB of ram to run nicely ,cause it`s java.

bitcomet is non-standard ,many versions of it are banned from most trackers.

ktorrent for linux didn`t reach a good working condition with private trackers yet.

Wow... thanks for the concise rundown on all the major BT clients out there. It's actually caused me to abandon bit comet and switch to "mue torrent" (I don't know how to get that little simble in there) and since I got on bitme, I guess my not using comet anymore is doubly a good thing.
