My 0.02$ is that Darkside of the Mac is the best choice.  It may or may not 
be freeware, but if it is shareware, it is cheap, because I am a 
grad student and could afford it.  It is also an application, not a init or cdev
and it is TINY in memory size.  It allows background processes to run
UNHINDERED, even on my lame classic.  I can download binhexed docs at
98-99% efficiency with darkside running in the foreground, which is
pretty good.
