DT does more than make you faster. It greatly increases the damage you do and also regenerates life (assuming you're not using any of the super forms, which lack this ability to keep some semblance of balance, I would guess), and if I recall, also allows you to stun DTed enemies. But the rate at which your life regenerates is also based on what difficulty you're playing in, as it heals more slowly in the higher difficulties (stopping completely in DMD/VMD mode--making life regeneration pretty much a moot point).
