How to increase download speeds with Azureus and uTorrent


I´am using Bitcomet and love it but Azureus and uTorrent are two great bittorrent clients as well and I know that a lot of people are using them. The AureusWiki site has an entry that tries to help you to download your torrents faster. They post some interesting links in that article that deal with common problems and settings that slow down downloads. They provide a chart for example that take different upload speeds and define other settings that are optimal for good download speeds.

JohnTp published an article that tries to explain how to increase download speeds with uTorrent, another popular client. This article is really helpful, besides a step by step walkthrough John added screenshots as well to visualise everything even more.

Just a sidenote, you will never be able to download at greater speed than your connection is capable of, that means: If you already have near to max speeds it is not necessary to tweak the settings even more. It´s great for everyone else who is having troubles.

    Great post! I’ve switch from BitComet to uTorrent a few weks ago, but already have made myself a fan of this tiny little software.

    I’ll translate it and post on my website/blog.

    uTorrent rules. I was a long time Azareus user anddidn’t mind the high use of system resources since I have a brand new, pretty beefed up PC. But uTorrentis just more efficient, intuitive, and cleaner.
