Hi all, I have a FreeBSD 4.x box running an app that uses 30-50% of the processor. Periodically (through cron) we run a perl app that processes log files and inserts the entries to sql. This perl + mysql combination is causing problems for our app and I'd like to run them at a low priority. What nice value should I give them - should I lower the value of just the perl, or both, or make the high priority app's value higher? Thanks Dave
