Actually c3 is when io is idle, not cpu.  That's somewhat important if
your gui is trying to use the disk.  But you are right, mlocate is set
to a low priority.  Maybe they changed them because someone else had the

It means it is unlikely to be Jim's issue.  Unless he's running strigi
or something like that and it isn't behaving.
