You can do this. Just start typing initial letters of torrent name when focus is in the list. It would be nice to have possibility of partial match: when non-matching torrents are hidden from the list and escape would reset the filter (show all torrents again).

Example of trace (note that same files are tried again and again), build 27220: 22:48:55.2287311 uTorrent.exe 3728 CreateFile \\192.168.1.1\my passport\Movies\SomeMovie\BDMV\CLIPINF\00005.clpi.!ut NAME NOT FOUND Desired Access: Read Attributes, Disposition: Open, Options: Open Reparse Point, Attributes: n/a, ShareMode: Read, Write, Delete, AllocationSize: n/a ....... <many other .!ut files files are tried here> ....... 22:49:51.4306415 uTorrent.exe 3728 CreateFile \\192.168.1.1\my passport\Movies\SomeMovie\BDMV\CLIPINF\00005.clpi.!ut NAME NOT FOUND Desired Access: Read Attributes, Disposition: Open, Options: Open Reparse Point, Attributes: n/a, ShareMode: Read, Write, Delete, AllocationSize: n/a ....... <many other .!ut files files are tried here> ....... 22:52:33.9963112 uTorrent.exe 3728 CreateFile \\192.168.1.1\my passport\Movies\SomeMovie\BDMV\CLIPINF\00005.clpi.!ut NAME NOT FOUND Desired Access: Read Attributes, Disposition: Open, Options: Open Reparse Point, Attributes: n/a, ShareMode: Read, Write, Delete, AllocationSize: n/a ....... <many other .!ut files files are tried here> ....... 22:55:17.2720877 uTorrent.exe 3728 CreateFile \\192.168.1.1\my passport\Movies\SomeMovie\BDMV\CLIPINF\00005.clpi.!ut NAME NOT FOUND Desired Access: Read Attributes, Disposition: Open, Options: Open Reparse Point, Attributes: n/a, ShareMode: Read, Write, Delete, AllocationSize: n/a

I have "Append .!ut to incomplete files" option OFF but Process Monitor shows that uTorrent constantly tries to read them. I'm not sure but I suspect that my external USB HDD would work faster if uTorrent didn't do that. Is there a way to ask uTorrent not to try to read .!ut files? If not, can you please add an option for this (it may be advanced option)? Thanks!

Not 2 months, but 19 days

27150 is mush less responsive during start up time (reading torrents and filling the tree). I have data files both on local and stand-alone HDD. One minor issue related to this problem: Top tree entry (e.g. "Torrents (397)") has two kinds of icon: static and round during initialization. Once I started uTorrent and see static icon (like it finished initialization) and only 4 torrents. I was scared stiff but in several seconds uTorrent unfrozen and changed icon to round arrows. Maybe makes sense to create top entry with round icon from the very beginning to avoid heart attack?
