    Pros

    • Torrent Swapper boasts unique features such as User Recommendations of shared files. It nearly doubles download speed by using the upload capacity of ‘friends’.
    • Torrent Swapper allows real-time P2P file sharing with P2P video streaming, and even shows the locations of seeders and leeches for the same downloads with city-level accuracy on a world map.
    • As Torrent Swapper is programmed in the cross-platform language Python, it is platform-neutral, i.e. it works on all major operating systems.



    Cons

    • Torrent Swapper could falter if you are a Windows Vista user, as it might freeze every five minutes after you start downloading files. This might force you to uninstall and do a system restore regularly, which is very time-consuming and generally inconvenient.
    • Besides, it lacks practical groupings of downloads, while sorting columns in display sometimes get stuck. Last but not least, as it is written in Python, Torrent Swapper is a bit heavy on different computer resources.
