I know that's your stock answer whenever someone mentions nice, but if the OP is talking about SCHED_OTHER processes, nice does play a role. But if the OP really wants to play with fire, try "chrt". Keep a shell open with higher priority in case the process never blocks, so you can kill it. "taskset" might also be useful for multicore machines. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
