Most lightweight torrent option

General Discussion
1

I am looking for the most lightweight torrent software that I can use on dietpi. Does anyone have any recommendations? I don’t need it to do anything but work with sonarr.

I am currently using qbittorrent but it seems to crash now after setting up NZBGet.

Optimized for dietpi:

Deluge https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5&start=10#p61
qBitTorrent https://dietpi.com/forum/t/dietpi-i2c-problem/66/1
rTorrent https://dietpi.com/forum/t/dietpi-software-details-for-all-installation-options/22/70

transimission works fine with sonarr in my case and it is very light.

You can use µTorrent (incredibly light torrent system) but it’s not a standard DietPi package, it does have a remote webpage generated so you can control it thru a webbrowser
The discussion link below the download shows the deps needed for install

I would bet the setup for µTorrent would be very close to the same for rtorrent
