Recently i installed qbittorrent and ktorrent to download some file i needed and first i used qbittorrent as the feature and options are much better compare to ktorrent but both application make system, freezes/ random shutters, animation freeze, unresponsiveness… even when there is enough free memory in the system…(4Gb free ram)…
what i can do to actually find what is causing all this issue,…
Monitor everything you can to try to find what is causing issues. Things like CPU usage, memory usage, disk activity, logs by starting application from terminal, system journal, everything you can think of.
Maybe you could find something obvious.
In qbittorent go to view > log and check show log. Then next time switch to execution log panel when you start download.
AFAIK torrenting is mostly hard on network and disk read/write.
which DE are you using, there were some bug reports of possible memory leaks with the latest qbitorrent 4.0 on i3
