Torrent Freak explores how the latest version of the popular uTorrent BitTorrent client is slightly more intelligent, detecting network congestion and adjusting its behavior in order to compensate. uTP is designed to be more network friendly, measuring the time a packet takes to get from peer A to peer B, detecting problems, then throttling speed (usually upload) to help compensate. "This means that the new uTorrent will eliminate the need for ISPs to throttle BitTorrent traffic in their networks," says TorrentFreak, something we're sure BitTorrent hopes is the case, but which doesn't necessarily make it true. The uTP 2.0 beta client is currently being tested by "a couple of hundred thousand people," according to BitTorrent's VP of Product Management Simon Morris.
