Most hosts seem to be fine with torrenting as long as you don't abuse things like the network, disk, or CPU, and don't get any DMCA notices. Just be sure to watch out for hosts that specifically are against torrenting.
rtorrent
Yeah, I should update that. We allow it in the context of what @wdq just said.
Transmission is cool and integrates with flexget

Thanks for all the comments. I figured most don't allow it because they don't want to deal with possible legal/DMCA issues, especially at LEB prices. One less possible headache. Even if they follow the law and qualify for safe-harbors, things don't always go as planned.
And finally, seems like it is time to check out qbitorrent-nox
http://aria2.sourceforge.net/ (it's in Debian too)
Thats pretty neat.
That said my personal favorite is rtorrent, I run it on my nas which is pretty under powered and doesn't use a whole lot of CPU (despite having a crapton of torrents). Can be a little ram heavy with many torrents, but all clients are like that.
utorrent for desktop and rtorrent for server.
Yep qbittorrent
