Well sorry, after re-reading I guess
http://dev.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals.html#proclife may cover
this part of my questionings

Problem is to have a good insight of what happens on your phone. I do use
Advanced Task manager to try to have infos, but it still lacks too much
infos. I would like to see :
- memory  used by listed apps (I can only know after killing them)
- for each app, number of processes and their "state" (active, background,
stopped,...)
- since it seems to be relevant, last used order (since LRU is used to kill
 processes)
- info about what caused the start of a process (user interaction, which
system event,...)
- ideally, be able to have some kind of history of what recently happened
(processes launched, killed,...)
