Just gave it a try with one torrent.
Leeching:
  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND            
 4212 ****    20   0  103m  34m  18m R 38.4  2.7   1:30.64 tixati    
Seeding:
 PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND            
 4212 ****    20   0  105m  35m  19m S  7.0  2.9   2:09.64 tixati      

Same torrent with Transmission:
Leeching:
 PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND            
 4246 ****    20   0  115m  32m  21m S 12.9  2.5   0:06.75 qtr      
Seeding:
 PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
 4246 ****    20   0  115m  32m  20m S  1.6  2.6   0:30.24 qtr    

Both clients working under KDE4, i686 compiled. That client needs too much cpu-power imho for leeching. Oh, and Tixati needs 15MB space, transmission 1MB ;)

The client itself looks okay, but the CPU-usage for leeching is just a no-go imho.
(Yeah, i know, a test with 10+ torrents would be better, but i'm too lazy to test a client so heavily... if someone wants to give it a try, be my guest ;) )

They only distribute binaries, which makes me rather nervous.

But xiong Oo they have to save their pricebreaking algorithms for leeching... (those that eat all your cpu...)
