The program was originally developed to be a lightweight and easy-to-use torrent client, with its tagline reading “a (very) tiny BitTorrent client.” While the client is certainly still lightweight, other open-source applications like Deluge have, over the years, eroded at uTorrent’s mindshare of the market. The following is a general comparison of BitTorrent clients, which are computer programs designed for peer-to-peer file sharing using the BitTorrent protocol. The BitTorrent protocol coordinates segmented file transfer among peers connected in a swarm.A BitTorrent client enables a user to exchange data as a peer in one or more swarms.

uTorrent is an efficient BitTorrent client for Windows from the originator of the BitTorrent protocol. Most of the features present in other BitTorrent clients are present in uTorrent, including bandwidth prioritization, scheduling, RSS auto-downloading, and Mainline DHT. Additionally, uTorrent supports the protocol encryption joint specification and peer exchange. Unlike many torrent clients, it does not hog valuable system resources--typically using less than 6MB of memory, allowing you to use the computer as if it weren't there at all.

Description
µTorrent is the world's most popular BitTorrent client. Most of the features present in other BitTorrent clients are present in µTorrent, including bandwidth prioritization, scheduling, RSS auto-downloading and Mainline DHT (compatible with BitComet). Additionally, µTorrent supports the Protocol Encryption joint specification (compatible with Azureus 2.4.0.0 and above, BitComet 0.63 and above) and peer exchange. µTorrent was written with efficiency in mind. Unlike many torrent clients, it does not hog valuable system resources. Various icon, toolbar graphic and status icon replacements are available, and creating your own is very simple. µTorrent also has support for localization, and with a language file present, will automatically switch to your system language. If your language isn't available, you can easily add your own, or edit other existing translations to improve them!
App Notes
File Downloads Location and Performance: By Default, uTorrent Portable will download files to uTorrentPortableDatadownloads and store torrents in uTorrentPortableDatatorrents. To change this, enter the options and enter the path for the root directory of your portable device, Documents for the documents directory on your device, Documentsdownloads for the X:Documentsdownloads directory, etc. Note that downloading files directly to a flash drive may slow down your other running portable apps. uTorrent does not support relative paths, so moving paths will require readjusting your download and torrent file locations manually.
