I have learned a lot, but I need some help from this group. I need to run news a lot quicker on our system. I have a couple of fullfeeds and my system seems to refuse a high number of articles. I've been reading the mailing list and some people recommend I change the priority of innd. We have taken the advice on stripping the drives, but I still don't get the performance I'm looking for. Could someone please tell me what the process would be to change the priority of a process? I've been reading about renice, tried it, but still doesn't give me the result I'm looking for. Any other tips to make my news servers that we receive the fullfeeds faster would be greatly appreciated. Stuart Wogsland stuart@tcccom.net
