Yes, I'm definitely seeing issues.
If I do a 'while(1) end' in a csh then interactivity with e.g. Firefox
goes to hell. It isn't supposed to do that. I think the
non-interactive thread is interfering with the UI's heavily
interactive operations between the X server and the application.
I will try to track this down today. I thought I had fixed this by
allowing reschedules when the current user process has a low dynamic
priority but it doesn't seem to be working the way it is supposed to.
