"I remember using the G3 Torrent client before discovering uTorrent
so now that i think of it utorrent design is based on the G3torrent design (very similar),
yesterday i was checking RUFUS client (open source) and its one of the best clients ever,
it includes Webui, RSS, different Choker strategies, manual ban or after N bad pieces and much more
and best of all with 5 torrents downloading it only grabbed 10MB of memory.

if you dont need DHT and PEX this client is an excellent alternative to the almighty uTorrent
or if you have a problem getting your download done with UT this will do it.

best 2nd client out there for me IMHO."

Actually Rufus was there before uTorrent :p
Source: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=11017Trash section

G3Torrent was before utorrent and Rufus was the successor of G3
because G3 development stopped so Rufus was created and improved upon, fixing bugs etc.
the more I use Rufus the more i see the connection with UT.
it may not be 150kb size but Rufus is super stable and got options not yet seen in UT.
its a great "alternative" to uTorrent and the fact that it eats only 10MB of ram make it very cool.
might lack DHT and PEX which is crucial for some people with throttled torrents, but if you dont
then Rufus is better than Azureus and Bitcomet and the rest.

BitTorrent 6 Beta is the same as µTorrent 1.7

BitTorrent 6 Beta Build 3495 is the same as µTorrent 1.7.2 Build 3458 Stable

µTorrent 1.7.2 Build 3458 Stable vs. BitTorrent 6 Beta Build 3495

By comparing the source of BitTorrent for Windows latest Beta 6 with µTorrent 1.7 latest stable, we come to the result that this two clients are the same. They are very similar. The following points are just the differences:

BiTorrent v6 Beta:
- Icons (incl. Vista Icon)
- Discover loacl peers "Multicast"
- integrated weblinks (Torrent Search engines)
- Homepage
- some Dialogs incl. "About" screen Message
- User Agent ID: bittorrent600B
- comes with a Setup Pack

New is in BitTorrent Version 6 a second application called DNA.exe a local Proxy (Delivery Network Accelerator).

The dna.exe keeps running even if you close BitTorrent, Task manager can kill the process manually (dna.exe use about ~7 to 14 MB RAM resources)
BitTorrent works without dna.exe fine. dna.exe is located in subfolder \Program Files\BitTorrent_DNA\dna.exe. Try to rename, delete or move this file.

The control Panel


µTorrent 1.7.2 is eXe compressed with UPX v.3.00 by default.
BitTorrent 6 Beta Build 3495 for Windows is with PECompact v.2.79 eXe compressed.

Result:
BitTorrent 6 Beta Build 3495 seems to be newer and a bit faster as the older µTorrent 1.7.2 Build 3458 and works on more trackers cause uT 1.7.x Builds are almost blocked.
