I support a checkbox "run nice by default" though I'd really
be able to start an analysis engine at nice 0. E.g. "just
checking quickly a move" while you're running a larger
calculation in the background is such a case. (Ok, I worked
as a physicist, so I had some calculations from time to time
taking several days of CPU time. Here you need to run bg
calc nice 19 while all other processes should get higher
priority, even analysis engine.)
