One of us here at TechSansar happen to review TuneUp Utilities 2010 after writing a successful how to install guide on the same.

Turbo Mode: Another important thing of all new TuneUp Utilities is Turbo Mode which can be launched any time so as to run individual programs smoothly. It prevents unwanted background programs and services or scheduled background maintenance from occupying valuable resources.
Personalize your own TuneUp Turbo Mode
When Turbo mode is enabled… postpone scheduled defragmentation, schedule maintenance tasks, automatic updates
Limit connections with external devices like mobile devices and digital cameras/scanners when turbo mode is enabled.
Reduce the visual effects ie when turbo mode is enabled switch to classic window design
Configure computer resources for optimal performance when turbo mode is enabled ensures optimal performance regardless of power consumption
Turn off unwanted functions, when turbo mode is enabled turn off media library sharing in the network, Windows search indexing function, error reporting and support for virtual machines
The final summary of the Turbo Mode configuration.
I like the review style, but its too short and you need more information. This is a good review to take a look at for future: http://eceplayground.com/2010/07/23/featured-tuneup-utilities-2010-review/
