    I'm using Azurues both on Linux and Win. I wouldn't call it
    light-weight exactly. it takes a huge foorprint in terms of memory..

    Running top

    I see
    SIZE = 224M
    RSS = 30M
    SHARE = 49844
    %MEM = 6.1 % (of my 512MB RAM)

    SO.. at 30MB, it's not exactly lightweight. I see bout the same memory
    usage in WIndows too.

    But hey, I like azureus.
