rTorrent is a command line ncurses BitTorrent client written in C++, based on the libTorrent libraries for Unices, with a focus on high performance and good code. The library differentiates itself from other implementations by transferring directly from file pages to the network stack and the other way around, by the use of the mmap() function. On high-bandwidth connections it is claimed to be able to seed at many times the speed of the official client.
rTorrent packages are available for various Linux distributions and Unixes, and it will compile and run on nearly every POSIX-compliant operating system, such as FreeBSD.
This bittorrent client uses ncurses and is suitable for use with screen or dtach. It supports saving of sessions and allows the user to add and remove torrents. It also supports partial downloading of multifile torrents.
