Vuze is a memory hog

Senna4ever 11-26-2009 11:28 PM

Really? I've had Vuze going in the background with iTunes & Firefox going, working on big image files in Lightroom & Photoshop without any problems. Even using just the integrated graphics, it's fine. Of course everything is faster (especially the image editing) when I switch to the dedicated graphics.

underscore 11-26-2009 11:54 PM

It's not obscene but on slower machines it's noticable, I just tossed on Vuze to compare:

Vuze - no torrents = 46,784k
uTorrent - 24 torrents (11s/1l) = 8,796k

It's for people who aren't noobs and don't give a shit that mininova is gone.

:lol

I'm starting to use thepiratebay.org now. Love it :)

illicitstylz 11-27-2009 07:45 AM

Piratebay gets a lot more downtime than a lot of the other torrent sites out there.

However I find it reliable in the sense that there's a lot more "user activity" that provides comments ratings and ranking of uploaders that way you know which torrents are good and which are fake.


Alternative I use is isohunt though and iptorrents.

Iv been trying to find a copy of the movie The Blind Side but everyone I download is a fake.
Anyone know of a link to the full movie?
I dont understand the fakes such bs.

Gunsmokez 11-30-2009 11:42 AM

Dam didn't even realize this. That is upsetting. Minni was my place for old old stuff you can't find.

Oh well. There is always private sites :)

6insomnia9 11-30-2009 01:03 PM

Mini was my most favorite place but it was bound to happen sooner or later..

Unless you're willing to pay about $15-30 bucks a month, you're not going to be using Usenet. That's pretty much the only reason why it isn't used as much as torrents...which are free. If you're on any of the private torrent sites, it's just as fast.

bigassbooger 12-02-2009 09:35 PM

i failed you cuz i couldnt thank u

Telus had pretty good usenet service with its internet packages up until about 2007. I wish they still supported it cause it was such an easy way to grab stuff and max out your connection without having to worry about seeding.

But yeah, if you're gonna spend money, I'd rather get a $$$$$$$$$$ account or something like that over a usenet subscription or even stupider shit like share ratios on private torrents.

woob 12-03-2009 09:41 AM

you don't spend money on private trackers...

ecsw 12-04-2009 03:52 PM

google.com

search the name + "torrent" and u can find whatever available. :p

I've seen a lot of people on torrent forums pay to boost their share ratios on private trackers.

Obviously you don't HAVE to but most of the time, it's impossible to share anything relatively new because the seeders start to outnumber leechers by a huge margin.

This is the end of the line my friends. The decision does not come easy, but we've decided to voluntarily shut down. We've been fighting for years for your right to communicate, but it's time to move on. It's been an experience of a lifetime, we wish you all the best!

Neva 02-05-2012 10:58 PM
