Ever try qBittorrent? its very light(QT + C++) and low on resource use. It was the first linux client to build support for magnet links.

I like it for its excellent torrent search.

It is available in more than 25 languages and is also available as a Mac client.

Oh and its open source.

...and banned on my trackers because of its peer-id spoofing feature.

not sure whether you knew it or not - but peer id spoofing (as uTorrent) was added because it was being banned on several trackers. Take a look at the bug to see a few examples https://bugs.launchpad.net/qbittorrent/+bug/497450

I think most private trackers allow Ktorrent and Transmission as they are considered defacto.
