Thanks. Are you able to post the newer version you mentioned?

If we're just tweaking the priority level between 0 and 20 a normal
user will have no worries. It's only when we try to take it below 0
that more capabilities are needed.
$ renice +1 31404
31404: old priority 0, new priority 1
$ renice -1 31404
renice: 31404: setpriority: Permission denied
$ renice +3 31404
31404: old priority 1, new priority 3
$ renice +1 31404
31404: old priority 3, new priority 1
OTOH, renicing isn't really going to help my quest to end unnecessary
background work, it's just going to make sure the foreground gets more
CPU share.
