I'm guessing that's because Aria2 is doing the heavy lifting here, so the download manager's interface is fairly light on resources. What surprised me was that the resource usage while downloading remained in a similar range, which for an Electron application is not bad at all. The program uses about 125-130 MB of RAM when running in the background.
#MOTRIX TRANSPORTES PORTABLE#
Motrix is an open source Electron app, it is available in an optional portable version.

To use it, go to the RPC Server tab in the extension, and choose the same port, i.e., 16800. The program suggests using the Aria2 Download Manager Integration add-on for Firefox, and while it is no longer being maintained, it does work with Motrix. I used YAAW, and set 16800 as the port, and toggled the interception of downloads to Aria2c.

Head to the Settings > Lab section, and you will find the recommended extensions. The program does not have official browser extensions, but works with third-party add-ons that support Aria2. Motrix is based on Aria2 like uGet and Persepolis Download Manager. Double-click on a downloaded file to open its location in Windows Explorer. The last option supports normal URLs, as well as magnet links, which I find very useful. It has buttons to restart the download, delete it, and a copy link button. Head to the Stopped tab, which is basically your paused/completed downloads section, and you can interact with the file. The program will seed the torrent automatically. Or, you can paste a Magnet URI link in the first tab, and the app will recognize it, fetch the torrent's metadata and start downloading the content. Motrix can download torrents too, you may drop a file onto the second tab of the "new download" page to start the process. The download manager sits in the system tray, and has a menu with options to quickly start a download. Click on the advanced options button, and you can add a user-agent, referrer and a proxy. You can rename the file, set the folder in which to save the file to. The speed meter in the bottom right corner indicates the current download speed, though you can also view this information in the download progress displayed in the right pane of Motrix's interface. The application will automatically pick up a URL that is in the clipboard. To begin a new file download, click on the + button on the sidebar. The Tasks tab is the primary screen, it has three tabs of its own, for accessing ongoing, paused and completed downloads. Motrix has a dual-pane GUI and a sidebar, and the design is modern. The program is cross-platform and open-source. Motrix has been on my radar for a while, I gave it a fair shot.
