I'm having an issue with qBittorrent where when it downloads something, my browsing speed/most other network activities become slow. It tries to eat up all the bandwidth. Generally, torrent clients automatically adjust its bandwidth dynamically to not impact other network activities but that's not happening for me with qBittorrent in the last few months.
So, I have been forced to move to Deluge for the time being which doesn't have this issue at all.

You probably know this but maybe try the speed setting in options? You can limit the bandwidth of torrents.
Yeah, but I don't want to do that. Like when I'm just browsing through MalwareTips, it barely use any bandwidth. So in such case, I want the torrent client to still download at maximum speed.
μTP protocol was created for this exact purpose but later this smart limit control mechanism also made its way into TCP for torrent clients. I don't know the technical details but qBittorent even has a setting for it which is enabled by default.
Anyway, Deluge is working how I want. I'll keep checking if the issue is resolved when a new qBittorrent version is released.
