As you see, TMNut had been throttling our P2P especially on torrent files.
But, sometimes, you need to switch between 2 Torrent client to test out connections without re-download all over again.
Which means you can have both client to use and having the same downloaded files.
Eg1. 55% downloaded from BitComet and you can get back 55% for BitSpirit without download all over again!
Eg2. 45% downloaded from Bit Spirit and you can get back 45% for BitComet without download all over again!
This is just an example:
