Your best bet is to just let the system manage itself.. and don't use a task killer, they're bad for android. If you really need to speed things up a bit consider getting rid of apps/widgets that hog resources such as widgets that constantly run and poll for information (weather widgets, facebook widgets, twitter widgets, etc.).
