uTorrent v3.1.2 build 26773 is totally flawed...

The very recent version of the most popular torrent application on the earth, uTorrent v3.1.2 build 26773, which has been updated 1 weeks ago, is totally flawed from its very first version. and this time the problem is severe and affects the CPU processor this time. and the previous issues with disk overloading is remained. even after some time on Google i also found that in several forums people are arguing over it, but no one is arguing over CPU usage.therefore i decided to let the world know about this.
From the very beginning this very software is flawed. the early versions were fine.works good. but this new version with several cosmetic changes failed to give something more in terms of performance. rather it brought disaster. this new version is very very CPU intensive. and it drives the CPU to run in 100%. which is overwhelming for any CPU to handle, and its brutal for laptop processors.
I have been using the application in both my desktop and laptop.though desktop is very airy so at first i didn't see any problem when running this application in desktop because my desktop can perfectly handle 100% CPU usage for long terms, as it is made with high performance overclocked gaming in mind, its an AMD machine baby !! ;)
Anyways, with my Laptop with Core i3 processor and 4GB ddr3 1600Mhz ram, its another story.as laptops don't have so much ventilation as desktops, they are prone to get hotter, though i have a faster system, faster fan with additional laptop cooler attached.but i first got the the hint of the problem when i see my laptop started is getting shut down frequently due to overheat. then i investigated the matter and found that my processor worked at 100% overnight !!
I investigated the problem and found that utorrent is the culprit. i checked the settings but found no problem in them, changing them also didn't worked much actually.
Anyways, later i found that decreasing "GUI update rate" in advance preference helps to low down the CPU usage but still its crappy.
On the other hand, the original Bittorret client, almost clone copy of utorrent has no problem like that, increasing GUI update rate in here increases slight CPU usage but not much to hang down the whole system.
Everyday we see more and more softwares getting updated and we update because it is supposed to bring stability and new features but in the other hand we get some flawed updates in reputed softwares like Firefox, Google Chrome, iTunes, Windows Updates, AVG updates, Immunet Updates, Ubuntu updates, ATI drivers ....... utorrent etc ....
So friends, Update wisely.Live well
bye
