A much more effective alternative to task-killer apps are scripts (like V6 supercharger) that work with lowmemorykiller, rather than in parallel.
I didn't know this, I'll look into the V6 thing. The reason I want a task killer is because I load up enough apps and they don't self close. On TP2 anyways it seems to make OS sluggish and I start to get the force crash/wait alerts. So if I close tasks, I get fewer of the alerts
