Talk:Comparison of BitTorrent clients
Suggestions
- Please fill in the cells in the table with question marks. This is a large table and it still has lots of data to add.
Should practical limitations be included on a client's "max active torrents" rating? If so, it is of course impossible to give Azureus a rating of infinity. Maybe the number included should be based on a citable report of most active torrents seen or tested on a specific computer.
- I don't think the max active column is particularly userful, actually. For instance, the official BitTorrent might only support 3 (although it only supported 1 last time I tried it), but there's actually nothing stopping you from running it multiple times to exceed this limit...
- Furthermore, I think a column for whether the client allows you to prioritise files within the downloaded torrent would be useful, as this is a facility offered by many but not all clients. But the table is too wide as it is, so I'd rather not add more columns to it. JulesH 09:44, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
- I've got 5 active torrents right now on the official client under OS X. So somebody who knows the exact maximum should correct it. As far as I know it might be infinity. 209.161.224.130 02:38, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
- I miss mldonkey, but I dont know what features are supported.
The 'Tracker' column for BitTorrent should at least have a footnote since the only release that doesn't contain the tracker is the Windows binary version. intgr 08:29, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
RSS Feeds
I think it would be a good idea to add whether a client supports RSS feeds to this page. Jacoplane 02:41, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

It's still in beta. Consider this a note to investagate it when/if it matures.
rename page?
"Comparison of BitTorrent compatible applications" - my reason for this would be because some programs are not just for BitTorrent (Shareaza), and some programs are clients (but servers, or servers ONLY).
