Yes. It's OK, but I prefer Ktorrent. Actually I liked Vuze too, perhaps
even better than Ktorrent. I just can't handle the hourly crashes. I
want to leave it running overnight.

I used to use Ktorrent on Ubuntu, but it had a serious bug that caused
it to spawn multiple copies of some KDE application, until eventually
it used all my 4 GB of RAM. So when I moved from Ubuntu to Fedora I
decided to try something else. I had tried Azureus several times in the
past, but usually couldn't even get it installed. On Fedora it
installed easily and I liked its features. But Ktorrent is almost as
featureful, and it's rock solid.

Vuze is a Java application. Now, I know someone is going to clobber me
for saying this, but I have yet to find a Java application that doesn't
crash or have other major bugs. My theory is that Java itself may be
fine, but it attracts inexperienced programmers. The result is an
application that is a mess. My theory should be considered a WAG
though, because I know so little about programming I wouldn't even try
more than a simple bash script, let alone Java.
