Aria2 是一個(gè)多平臺(tái)輕量級(jí)，支持 HTTP、FTP、BitTorrent 等多協(xié)議、多來(lái)源的命令行下載工具。Aria2 可以從多個(gè)來(lái)源、多個(gè)協(xié)議下載資源，最大的程度上利用了你的帶寬。Aria2 有著非常小的資源占用，在關(guān)閉磁盤緩存的情況下，物理內(nèi)存占用通常為 4M（正常 HTTP/FTP 下載的情況下），BitTorrent 下載每秒2.8M/S的情況下，CPU 占有率約為 6%。Aria2 支持 JSON-RPC 和 XML-RPC 接口遠(yuǎn)程調(diào)用。

很多人在 Windows 可能用過(guò) Internet Download Manager，是很好用的多線程下載工具。Aria2 跟 IDM 類似，不僅可以多線程下載，還可以通過(guò)多來(lái)源進(jìn)行下載，簡(jiǎn)單的說(shuō)就是從多個(gè)鏡像服務(wù)器同時(shí)下載一個(gè)文件，Aria2 還支持 BT 協(xié)議，彌補(bǔ)了 IDM 只支持 HTTP 和 FTP 的痛點(diǎn)。
