CrushFTP is a Java-based FTP server which is as fast as, or faster than, the built-in FTP server. You configure it all through a GUI, easily specifying things like connection time limits, folder restrictions, bandwidth restrictions, and many other such options. But perhaps its nicest feature is that you can create users within CrushFTP itself that do not need to exist as full OS X users. No more adding multiple users to your machine just because you wish to allow someone to FTP into the box once and a while. Just create their username in CrushFTP and launch the program when you want to let them in.
CrushFTP made it possible for me to offer FTP for a co-developer on a project without needing to learn the very obscure command-line FTP configuration commands, and I could rest easy knowing the user had no way into the machine if CrushFTP wasn't already running.
