The processes associated with the window that has focus should be given
a priority boost automatically - this is done for processes whose scheduling
class is shown as "IA" (interactive) instead of "TS" (timeshare), and is
managed by the SolarisIA extension to the Xorg server.
"ps -efc" will show the scheduler class for the processes.
"priocntl -d -i class IA" will show an IAMODE of "1" for processes
currently getting the priority boost.
