I've used it for smaller torrent files. It works just fine for anything under 500 MB, at least in my experience. I really don't download movies or large batches of photos (or any other media) through Opera, though.

Yes, for small files it works pretty nice and fast. But for bigger files it just doesn't start downloading, so it's a hit and miss situation... which made me chose not to use it at all, I'm afraid
So I agree with e-berlin. Either fix it or just remove it.
its kind of handy if i want to download something small and intend to share it later - like supporting faster openoffice downloads etc ^^

What you're saying makes no sense at all... Let me rewrite my previous post with spell check example:
I just tried to type a word of 10 characters with 10.53 on winxp sp3 and the spell check just ate all of my memory in a few seconds while checking the word (MSWord doesn't use any memory at all while spell checking...) But then the shutdown takes like 10 minutes because it's freeing up all the virtual memory I used or something. Another thing is that I don't see the memory usage, behind the opera process in task manager, change once the spell check starts. But an external program shows my memory usage is skyrocketing.
And you're basically saying: Spell check is basic in Opera... just type small words.. + apples & oranges comparison
Don't get me wrong, I would love to have a Torrent client in Opera. But the state it is in now, it's just useless.
2) uToorent is just to good - Opera would have to make reall ybuig efforts to meka something half as good without destroying the browser - so what the heck- they can leave it "for the case" for peaople who have no idea how to download torrents otherwise (got parents?)
everyone else will use uTorrent anyway
