The problem is not the process killers, but the system calls that they use.
DosKillProcess(), which I imagine they all use, is just not very powerful.
In fact, OS/2's process handling system calls are very weak. I hope
that eventually they will be improved (maybe for 2.2? who knows?).
If you're interested, I've just finished writing a graphical process
display/selective kill program. It's called PMps (not to be confused
with pspm2). At present it's sitting on hobbes in /pub/uploads/pmps.zip.
