Teleport Pro does have options to control how it behaves:
1. "Obey the Robot Exclusion Standard". Default: On
2. "Wait ____ seconds before requesting more than two files at once from
a single server". Valid: 0+ Default: 1 second
3. Number of threads. Valid: 1-10 Default: 10
Because of #2, Teleport Pro only has one active thread at a time, and it
is idle at least 50% of the time (when downloading image archives). In
other words, it's possible for a user can configure Teleport Pro to
hammer a server, but it behaves respectfully using the default settings.
