Subject: (7.51) innd get a non-zero ``nice'' value?
Q. Why does innd end up with a non-zero ``nice'' value? A. Some systems (usually BSD-based) will automatically renice a process to a value of 4 if the process is not a root process and if it has a nice value of 0 and if it has accumulated more than 10 minutes of CPU time. On BSD/OS systems this can be defeated by configuring a kernel with AUTONICETIME set to 0. ------------------------------ [Source: INN FAQ Part 7 Archive-name: usenet/software/inn-faq/part7] [Last Changed: $Date: 1997/09/16 01:25:57 $ $Revision: 2.25 $] [Copyright: 1997 Heiko Rupp, portions by Tom Limoncelli, Rich Salz, et al.]
