After faffing around with a White Industries square taper BB (a good, but rather expensive one) for a couple of years, I went back to the $18 Shimano Ultegra BB, and it felt the way it does when I stop hitting myself in the head with a hammer.
@Andrew R Stewart: sample size = 1.0
Edit: I just remembered my Crampy square taper BB survived about 35 years of malignant neglect.
