current state of linux clients that can manage 20k+ torrents (~40tb)
I've been a habitual rtorrent user but it feels like it's time to move on - it's also a little annoying that this issue has never seen traction.

Tremc: Curses Interface for Transmission
I know it's not quite the same thing but I started using rtorrent[0] a very long time ago and it still works well for my needs.
Is there anyone who has used both who can comment on the pros and cons?

Torrenting Clients
Better in what exactly? Anyway, rtorrent seems abandoned. The last commit was 8 months ago. Transmission's last commit was 5 days ago. And regarding transmission-cli: "Prior to development of transmission-remote, the standalone client transmission-cli was created. Limited to a single torrent at a time, transmission-cli is deprecated and exists primarily to support older hardware dependent upon it. In almost all instances, transmission-remote should be used instead.".

Other option is to install rtinst https://github.com/arakasi72/rtinst after script installation, just do rtdload when it asks just input y and you will have https:///download with username and password you set up for rutorrent.
