Subject: [gentoo-amd64] PORTAGE_NICENESS
Date: Thu, 14 Jun 2007 10:44:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5bdc1c8b0706141044p41426bd9p761bc3148f9aee93@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a good setting for
PORTAGE_NICENESS that would allow some compiles in the background
without drastically effecting MythTV? Or is there some better way to
do this with other software?

I've fiddled around with renicing mythfrontend but even going to -15
didn't seem to help that much. Seems better to just make the compiles
slower and more friendly.

Note that this seems somewhat worse under the newest -rt kernel -
2.6.21.4-rt12-cfs-v17. I may need to back up and see if the previous
one I was running was any better.

Thanks in advance,
Mark
