Root How do you determine which apps run in RAM versus ROM?

I just successfully rooted my Droid 2 and now want to read up on how to optimize it. Isn't that the main reason to root it? How do you determine and control which apps run in RAM versus ROM? What apps are better run in RAM versus ROM?

I have advanced App Killer but find apps running aging that I've killed. How do you keep apps killed until you need them. Some of this that seem to restart without me running them are Social Networking, GO SMS PRo, Solo Lie! Blockbuster, Skype Mobile and Craig Browser.
Thanks
