You could try using the -n option to the startproc commands in the init script, for the start and restart arguments, changing the startproc -f -p $DATADIR/log/BackupPC.pid -u $USER $BINDIR/$DAEMON -d lines to something like startproc -n +10 -f -p $DATADIR/log/BackupPC.pid -u $USER $BINDIR/$DAEMON -d I'm assuming that all related commands are children of the init script (except perhaps manual commands from the CGI interface), and should inherit its nice value.
