utorrent is Windows-only. Do not come with the excuse to run it with Wine. And 
Azureus is far from being slow. It might use a few more resources than other 
clients, but I have no problem running it on FreeBSD 6.1 downloading torrents 
at almost full speed of my internet connection.

You did not mention that before. Anyway, make sure to run Azureus on
Java 1.4.2. Neither 1.5.0 from ports nor Diablo from the FreeBSD
Foundation seem to work well with it.

At least for me.

FWIW, I had the same experience with Azureus.  For me, no amount of
tweaking or tuning made any difference.  I'm blaming it on native jdk,
only because I've seen some other strangeness with it.  I havent' really
tried to figure it out, so who knows...

py-bittorrent works great.

Give utorrent a try. Azureus is slow and takes too much resources.

I know all that. I am saying that Azureus on FreeBSD runs slower than
d/ling the same torrent on a windows or even a linux (ubuntu) box when
getting the same torrent from the same network.

Make sure to limit the number of connections and torrents according to the
upload speed of your internet connection. Also limit your upload speed.
