Deluge BitTorrent Client 0.5.6 released

What is Deluge?

BitTorrent Client for Linux, Mac, and now Windows. Works on almost all desktop environments. KDE, GNOME, XFCE, Windows and others. Deluge is lightweight with low system resource requirements and this makes it standout better when compared with others.

Deluge boasts an extensive list of features applied through the use of plugins. My favorite would be the full stream encryption feature which disables my ISP’s throttling capabilities on BitTorrent traffic.

• Web UI
• BitTorrent Protocol Encryption
• Mainline DHT
• FAST protocol extension
• µTorrent Peer Exchange
• UPnP and NAT-PMP
• Proxy support
• Web seed
• Private Torrents
• Global and per-torrent speed limits
• Configurable bandwidth scheduler
• Password protection
• RSS
• And much more!

   Unfortunately after bringing this baby out for a test ride for around one week, I found that it suffers from some bad memory leaks

   If you’re a Debianista, just apt-get install deluge-torrent

   Similarly for those green lizards out there :

   zypper -n in deluge

   2 things to note though ( 3 if you count the memory leaks ) :

   1. you must add packman repo to your repos first
   2. the deluge version might not be the latest ( well as of writing it isn’t ) so you will get an irritating pop up reminding you that a new version of deluge is out.

    ZShare Fan, Make sure that encryption is enabled for deluge. I found in the past when encryption for my connections were not enabled the speed was slow.
