[gentoo-user] Different CPU priorities for processes - HOWTO?

[Chris Carter]

Hi,

A really nice feature I enjoyed using in my old HP3000 was having
different CPU queues that had different CPU priorities. During
configuration, you could define which processes (users, housecleaning,
database, etc.) go into which queue. Critical apps got higher priority,
users got medium priority and night batch runs got low priority.

Is this type feature available in Linux?

Cheers!
Chris

  Is this type feature available in Linux?
 thinking of something like the nice command: nice -+19 
 command, to set 
 lowest priority, and nice -0 for highest priority.

Thanks. I was not aware of nice. I'm reading the info pages now.

Cheers!
