two_task is used to control how oracle pays attention to your connections. if you do not use two_task, you connect to unique connection: more overhead. if you use two task, oracle will try to assign all your same userid proc's to the same connection, so you get fewer processes running total. in reality, most people will see oracle suck up the resources they gained by running fewer processes to compensate for the increased load on the database.
