No need to duplicate the content or split the Acquisition user community.

For my 2¢, Acquisition is the best performing client I've tried on Mac OS X. I've also tried Phex and Limewire.

I've been a loyal Limewire user (even bought Pro) since early 2001, but I've been frustrated by Limewire's windowing performance on the Macintosh - which seems to have gotten worse. I can't run Limewire on my Mac anymore because it ends up stealing all my machine's CPU cycles.

I'm curious why this is - Phex is also a Java application but it is much more responsive.

Will make a post to the Limewire forum.
