Package: reniced
Version: 1.19-1
Severity: normal

reniced names suggest that it is a demon, consantly
running and monitoring system and changing nice level.

Unfortunetly, reniced is called in init, but it is one-shot
application of renice, just for programs started before it.

Essentially it is impossible with it, to renice new programs (like programs
a user on workstation starts, or after logging via ssh, or
after other deamon, i.e. apache, mysql restart).

It would be MUCH more usefull if renice will sit in loop,
and every 30 seconds or so, check if list of processes
changed, if it is so, than aplay rules to new ones.

If possibly it could use netlink to monitor for forks,
and execvs, to make it much more efficient.

Currently i just have script which loops
while true; do
 /usr/bin/reniced; sleep 30
done


Thanks.
