I can't speak for the project, but when I talked to the guys at twitter about it it sounded like it might be a bit less of a generally applicable thing than moxi. That is, moxi tries to be a proxy for any kind of upstream or downstream, and twemproxy is focused on the things that twitter needed to make their own applications perform better. Many of those things may help your applications. They did say they focused on batching together lots of operations over individual item latency. Hopefully someone from the team can add more clarity (or tell me I'm completely wrong).
