Once uTorrent was my favorite BitTorrent client to download torrent files. uTorrent has offered rich feature set, faster performance, low memory usage and supports older computers too. But all the good things are dominated by the Annoying crap toolbars and Advertisements. Even one can accept Ads in the uTorrent but the bloated toolbars are evil and installs itself automatically. All my browsers are also affected with useless toolbars and uninstalling these craps are so complex. Even you uninstall from the Windows these toolbars won’t leave you and will follow you. To remove this you need toolbar uninstallers.
I’ve searching for the best alternative uTorrent without compromising speed and performance of it. Tixati is the answer for this annoyance of uTorrent.

Set Outgoing Bandwidth Throttle to Increase Torrent Download Speed
Tixati works well with default settings and you don’t any tweaks to improve the download speed of torrent files. If you have any slow download problems, check your internet and bandwidth speed.
For example, If your internet connection speed is like a below screenshot, follow the steps to improve torrent download speed in Tixati.
You will need to convert your results into kilobytes per second (KB/s) according to the following table:
| Kb/s (kilobits per second) | divide by 8 | example: 628 Kb/s divided by 8 = 78.5 KB/s |
| Mb/s (megabits per second) | multiply by 125 | example: 0.64 Mb/s x 125 = 80 KB/s |
| MB/s (megabytes per second) | multiply by 1,000 |
It is usually best to set your outgoing throttle at about 70-80% of capacity. Since our capacity is 80 KB/s, we will set our throttle to 80 x 0.7, which equals 56 KB/s.
In Tixati, click the Bandwidth tab and look for the Maximum KB/s settings in the right side of the window.Type there the 56KB/s and press enter.
Just like the above example set the speed and get the maximum benefit from tixati.
