So. I decided to get off my high horse and do some thinking.
It is POSSIBLE that when you delete applications thru the Application Manager the dalvik-cache (dex file) could be left behind.
Just because I personally have not experienced this does not mean it is not possibly a bug. So I made an init script, this script will go thru your dalvik-cache comparing the dex files within with your installed applications. When it finds a dex file that does not have an application associated with it it will remove the dalvik-cache entry.
This package is a recovery flashable zip, it will work on any rom that supports init.d scripts and even on roms that do not, if you run the cleaner manually.
After you flash this it will automatically run during init.
You can manually run thru a rooted terminal by typing dalvik-cleaner
like I said, I havent had any problems with this, but I keep my app turnaround low and my mtds clean. I could see this helping a few of you where your old dalvik cache entries are somehow not getting erased, or if you manually delete apks,
