Reposted as a new issue from my last post in #2968:

As soon as I got home I backed up my qbt settings and downloads, and proceeded to I install and run the program. It works and does not freeze, though I'm not too pleased.

I went on to download a large package (70GB) let it run for a few hours, I haven't encountered any stalls or crashes, though I am not too happy with its CPU usage.

Usage is higher the higher the transfer speed is. While not high, it is significantly higher than the previous build you provided in this thread. (http://builds.shiki.hu/temp/qbittorrent_v3.2.0_libtorrent0.16.7z)

By comparison, the 3.2.0 libtorrent 0.16 build showed an "average" of 1.xx in Resource Monitor and the CPU frequency was almost always at the lowest state.

I tried installing the older the version and restoring my backup qbt profile and downloads, but all my downloads and settings from my backups don't work, so I'm stuck on this version.

EDIT: This is with the program in the tray, though it hardly makes a difference.

EDIT3: Snipped and moved the issue here.

At the time that was taken, it was just 500 KB/s more or less.

Can you try sorting by the "#" column?
Even it that column is the sorting column, click it again.
Does it make any difference?

Note: He is using Windows and I'm on Linux.
I'm using the master branch with libtorrent 1.0.5 and the CPU / RAM consumption is ultralow. Downloading at 11.5 MiB/s (100Mbps) only 3% CPU usage and less than 90 MB of RAM.

@sledgehammer999 I always sort by that column, and it didn't make a difference either way

@ngosang what's your usage with 3.3.0alpha?

Also, if there is a way to mark this as low priority? I've created a clean new profile and just rolled back to the 3.2.0 libtorrent 0.16 build for now.

I will try the next stable again, and I suppose CPU issues can be ironed out later for 3.3.0?

I already answered above. master branch = 3.3.0alpha

@sledgehammer999 sorry about that, been busy so was unable to report in about this right away and completely forgot.
In the RC, CPU usage is now at around 5% at 500KB/s down with QBT in the tray, so a marked improvement.
Still, lets keep the issue closed, I'll report in again when the release version lands to see if this persists.
