Until someone approaches the problem with some creative thinking, it won't be
fixed any time soon, I recommend reading the comments by Anastasius Focht who
explained why eMule is so resource-hungry under Linux.

Regarding eMule viability: anyone that uses ED2K on a regular basis knows
native clients suck so bad that, besides ditching ED2K entirely, eMule is the
only thing that works at acceptable speeds.

aMule 2.1.3 is a sorry excuse, given its awkward interface (just look at the
search engine screenshots on amule.org!), the prehistoric set of features and
the sheer amount of bugs affecting it.

OTOH version 2.2 has been utter vaporware, perpetually claimed to be on the
verge of being released Real Soon Now(tm), for *over* *two* *years*, that is
until a couple weeks ago. It isn't officially available through my distro yet,
and I have very little faith in the developers, but I will give it a spin as
soon as the new package shows up.
