i've tried four or five different ones, but i still haven't
found one i really like.

i'm currently using vuze, but i think it's a memory hog, and
the layout is so-so.

i'd like one which is:

- efficient
- easy to use (yet advanced)
- reliable

suggestions?

thanks.

yeah, it don't use as much memory as this new vuze crap or
if you want something which uses even less memory, then
utorrent is excellent

Azureus has more features but is a heavy on CPU and memory
(it's java.) uTorrent is small, fast and unbloated. I would
never go back to Azureus since I started using uTorrent.

utorent 1.6 i read from many sources was the best one to use
...

Perhaps a list of the ones you don't like will stop
subsequent people suggesting them?

Also, must agree, Azureus is MASSIVE memory hog and avoid at
all costs.

only way to go is µTorrent imo. ultra light, fast and
easy.
