how fast you download is dependent on peer upload speed, how many you are able to connect to. saying bittornado is faster then other client is the same as saying AMD is faster then Intel regardless when they are equal in speed in most cases. which client you use is more of a preference rather then which is best. There is no best.
The last guy who posted that connected both simultaneously to the same tracker for the same file...
As far as I go, BitTornado is my client of choice because it uses no CPU at all, because it's blazingly fast, because it's damn stable and because I don't have issues with the memory consumption due to the wxPython interface.
I more or less permanently have between 2 and 15 BT sessions up (yes, fills the tray bar a lot).
I appreciate the lean, pure and functional interface without any bells and whistle (it does it's job period), the simplicity of the resuming (just re-launch the torrent, BitTornado finds your old files and resumes, no pain, only gain).
I never dug fully integrated clients such as ABC or (worse) Azureus, give me a tool that can reliably, easily and rapidly download my torrents, that allows me to set quotas however I want, that give me instant resumes, and I'm happy. And BitTornado gives me that.
