</div>No, it's not. When you run the "nice -19" it sets it to the lowest possible<br>
priority. I see these processes in htop where the nice is set at 19 and I<br>
cannot lower it at all.<br></blockquote><div>I may be misreading you but:<br></div><div>nice values go between -20 and 20 where negative numbers have a *higher* priority then positive numbers, it's a "rating" of how "nice" my program is to others, so -20 is absolutely rude to the others and doesn't share whereas 20 will always yield right of way...<br>
