Hi. Please, i wanna quest you how the priority of the processes is asigned. I am trying know the mechanism for asign the priority and who is the 'entity' that asign it. The developer of an aplication?, the developers of the kernel?, the cpu by itself?. Thanks you, very much, in advance. Regards. Jose. http://linuxespana.scripterz.org FreeBSD RELEASE 4.8.
