However you want to look at it, there's always the comparison with uTorrent.
Without that Halite would be an awesome client, with it there's a bunch of
little things that you'll find in uT but will miss in Halite. Proxy support for
example, I personally also like uT's label system and "add torrent"
screens a lot (it's a pain to add additional trackers in Halite, you have to
enter 'em one by one, while in uT you can simply paste the complete list),
couldn't get CIFS adresses to work (saving to \\othercomputer\Torrents in Halite
doesn't work), etc.
On the positive side: it seems that H. does consume slightly less memory
and all the really needed functions (.torrent builder, encrypted connections,
DHT, etc) are all there. So while it currently is no match for uT there's
certainly potential in this program.
