Mullvad no longer supports port forwarding and isn't really used by anyone in the torrenting community any longer. Most of those users have moved over to IVPN or AirVPN.

I've been using it for torrenting for ages. What's this about port forwarding?

Port forwarding allows you to connect to DHT/PeX swarms and helps saturate your client with connections. In practice, it allows for faster speeds as more connections are established.

I literally did not know this. I haven't had any kind of issues so I'm not going to worry about it, but it's something that I would have considered during initial setup.
