Does a BitTorrent client like uTorrent really use your CPU cycles?
Well, there is not any definitive answer to this question.
After careful analysis, I can say that if you’re facing an issue with your internet and CPU usage then you need to remove it.
Maybe there is some internal process that uses the CPU CYCLE.
If you’ll see any unwanted behavior then you need to uninstall it.
Let’s see what the Reddit discussion concludes.
Below is the Reddit discussion and we can evaluate our personal thoughts on whether we should do it or not.
North7: “What’s worse is the rep from uTorrent in that thread. That is exactly how you don’t do customer service. When a customer says they are experiencing something you don’t say, “Well we tested that so you must be lying”, in so many words. And when multiple customers say the same thing and you still react that way, you have a big, big issue. Goodbye, uTorrent.
StrawRedditor: “I’m surprised they did this actually. Anyone familiar with the counter-strike scene probably knows that ESEA (A league that has its own anti-cheat) got caught doing the same thing. That anti-cheat program was mining bitcoins without anyone knowing. There was a big class-action lawsuit that they lost, and they had to pay out to replace people’s video cards and such since the program was having them run at 100% for extended periods. “
Occamslaser: “I stopped using it around a year ago.”

Master_clown: “I use transmission and you can even set it up so that you can add torrents remotely from your phone much like uTorrent. My favorite alternative and super lightweight. Deluge is also awesome, but I prefer transmission. Also, the transmission comes preloaded on a lot of Linux distros, which is a good sign.”
Soul_Rage: “Switched to Deluge after some comment a few months ago. It’s everything uTorrent was supposed to be. No non-sense functionality and nothing more. Have Transmission on my work laptop, and it’s equally minimalistic in the right ways.”
So as I shared above you can conclude whether you should download and install the application or not.
If NO then is there any alternative to it?
Well, YES, you can use some open-source applications or software programs like BitTorrent, VUZE, etc.
You can download and install one of these applications or software from its trustworthy source and can start using it.
