uTorrent 2.0 Release Notes

We've added UDP tracker support!
uTP has been improved significantly over the previous alpha,     with many bugs fixed and   performance improvements. It's no    longer hidden in Advanced settings.
The setup dialog has been overhauled to make it much easier to use and with a built-in speed test. It's still not quite complete yet, but this will give you a good taste of what we're up to with it!
A new transfer cap feature has been added to track bandwidth usage, along with graphs to show your usage.

Feature Overview

UDP trackers are a different protocol for tracker   communication that uses significantly less processing power  on the tracker end. It's important for us to support this  because trackers have limited resources, so this should
allow them to support many more users with their current hardware and not crash under the load.
uTP is an alternative communication method for BitTorrent traffic that allows the client to automatically regulate its bandwidth usage to avoid adversely impacting your internet connection. This will allow you or other users on
the network to download their torrents without killing your connection without any additional setup required.
The transfer cap settings were added in response to various users who have ISP-mandated caps on how much data they can download/upload in a month. Now you can track your usage in MB (with a handy graph to visualize it) and even
configure µTorrent to stop torrenting once the limits are exceeded. Currently, you can configure the time interval, the data cap and whether it should stop based on only download, upload, or both combined.
As a privacy notice, this traffic data is not sent back to us or anyone.
