They serve different functions -- SharkCache pre-loads commonly used code into DBCache to speed up your use of your palm... RLock lets you lock some small code snippets into DBCache so they can't be flushed when an app needs more Cache for itself. It looks like the new version also does something else... it lets you see what apps are eating up all your DBCache (then you can disable the cache hogs).

Answer from Resco Locker help file :
SharkCache has a similar functionality.
There are minor differences in that RLocker performs double-locking (safer) and locks only 1st record
of the data databases while SC locks all records. (Difficult to say, which procedure is better.)

RLocker performs immediate lock/unlock, while SharkCache leaves the locking for the reset.

RLocker has better GUI and offers also DA's (Desk Accessories) locking.
