You would think a negative number would mean less and positive number means more, but it turns out "Nice" works the opposite of that, you want it to be more "nice" so you want a higher number, LOL.<br/><br/>I checked the 32bit Linux clients, they run a Nice level of 0, so I guess it's running equal time with everything else.<br/><br/>On the Windows clients, Bit Coin runs at "normal" priority as well.<br/><br/>It's easy to start the process in low priority via command line for both of them, so for now I can do that to manually control their priority <img alt="Grin" border="0" src="/static/img/emoticons/grin.gif"/></div> text/html
