Can you review FrostWire as well? I have heard that it supports bittorrent as well.

I downloaded FrostWire and ran a few torrents and it performed well.
But, I felt that since this was a bittorrent client section, Frostwire did not fit in.
If one is interested in the Gnutella content available on FrostWire, then it is worth using as a bittorrent client also.
But to use it as a bittorrent client without using the FrostWire P2P does not make sense.

I had re-tested some of these clients recently and kept some better notes.
Frostwire uses a good amount of RAM for a bittorrent client (41,908K) - compared to uTorrent's 944K this makes it for certain that unless you are using the Gnutella, there is no reason to use Frostwire for bittorrent.
But if you are using the Gnutella, it runs torrents as good as the others.
