The following is a general comparison of BitTorrent clients, which are computer programs designed for peer-to-peer file sharing using the BitTorrent protocol. [1]The BitTorrent protocol coordinates segmented file transfer among peers connected in a swarm.
rTorrent is a text-based BitTorrent client written in C++, [4] based on the ncurses and libTorrent (not to be confused with libtorrent) libraries for Unix.
On Windows, Transmission-Qt can be built with MinGW, [26] the daemon and console tools can be built with Cygwin, [27] also there are two third-party GUIs: transmission-remote-dotnet [28] and Transmission Remote GUI, [29] as well as unofficial full builds of Transmission's Qt Client.
libtorrent is an open-source implementation of the BitTorrent protocol. It is written in and has its main library interface in C++.Its most notable features are support for Mainline DHT, IPv6, HTTP seeds and μTorrent's peer exchange. libtorrent uses Boost, specifically Boost.Asio to gain its platform independence.
Deluge BitTorrent Client is a free and open-source, cross-platform BitTorrent client written in Python.Deluge uses a front and back end architecture where libtorrent, a software library written in C++ which provides the application's networking logic, is connected to one of various front ends including a text console, the web interface and a graphical desktop interface using GTK through the ...
The first version of the DNA made it possible to keep the DNA application installed and yet temporarily stopped until the next system restart (through the system's control panel, in Windows XP [12]). The DNA GUI was completely removed in the official BitTorrent version 6.1 and 6.1.1, but was re-introduced in version 6.1.2.
μTorrent, or uTorrent (see pronunciation), is a proprietary adware BitTorrent client owned and developed by Rainberry, Inc. [10] The "μ" (Greek letter "mu") in its name comes from the SI prefix "micro-", referring to the program's small memory footprint: the program was designed to use minimal computer resources while offering functionality comparable to larger BitTorrent clients such as ...
It allows the use of multiple trackers per file, so if one tracker fails, others can continue to support file transfer. It is implemented in several clients, such as BitComet, BitTornado, BitTorrent, KTorrent, Transmission, Deluge, μTorrent, rtorrent, Vuze, and Frostwire. Trackers are placed in groups, or tiers, with a tracker randomly chosen ...
