Bit torrent is somewhat hit and miss, I just downloaded a couple of knoppix (and
varient) CDs, combined I was seeing near saturation of my inbound bandwidth.
Other times it will download at 2 KB/sec.

I am curious about what apps people are using for BitTorrent. I checked the
archives and there was mention of Azureus but I am not overly fond of
Java... anyone have any better suggestions?

Azureus is the only one I've tried so far - and that was due to Kubuntu's site
requiring the use of bittorrent for downloading their isos.

I wasn't impressed. On most downloads without bitorrent, I usually get about
156 to 160 KB/sec download. When I used Azureus, I was getting 83 KB/sec -
just over half my normal rate.
