Do you use Azureus/Vuze?

There are other WAY BETTER alternatives to Vuze to be honest.

To be honest, huh?

Name one client that will rename torrent folders, rename files and relocate those files within new subfolders, while retaining the ability to seed to completion. Ya, I've read that you can do it in utorrent, but all the renaming has to be done outside the program. I tried it and it is a total pain in the ass compared to how easy it is to do from within Vuze.

The queue feature, while quite nice, I could learn to live without. The other advanced features I've grown to rely on, especially on sites that don't enforce any naming conventions.

I tried to switch over some torrents from Vuze to utorrent. There very first one mind you, had a folder name of 'compilations.' When I look at that one six months from now, I won't have a clue what it is.

I didn't bother after that. On the few torrents I've downloaded with utorrent, I've found that speeds are a lot slower in both directions.

Renaming torrents while download/seeding is something I miss when using Utorrent. I'm suprised they haven't added this feature.

I don't like any Java programms (expect Jdownloader) because they always eat too much memory and runs slow as hell after running for several hours.

I am not a fan of Java apps, however I don't have problems like this with Vuze. The common view in this thread is that Vuze is a resource hog. However, I've been running version 4.3.1.4 for four days solid and it's not eating resources or running slowly.

I'm not saying it's as light as Utorrent, however I doubt you would notice the difference on the average Windows system.
 
I'm faithful Azureus / Vuze with classic UI for 3 years now. Have chosen it thanks to very comfortable (for me) interface, rich features, extensibility, good reputation on all trackers and Java platform (I'm Java developer myself).

Never encountered performance issues. I optimized its settings and jvm settings a little bit though. Plus 3gb of memory on my 24x7 comp is probably good enough. Running version 4.2.0.8 now, current session (no interruptions, no reloads, no reboots) continues for 107 days.

Despite that, my Vuze days are probably almost over. I'm still happy with Vuze, but I'm preparing to change my central machine with a new one and and configuring OpenSuse on it. Thought to install Vuze on Linux as well but with recent unfortunate developments I'm considering kTorrent and rTorrent with wTorrent interface.
