> Is it possible to add "nice" to cygwin-rsyncd package ? Hi Alfred
Although I can't comment re cygwin-rsyncd, you can use (Free) Process Priority Saver - so that this process is always loaded as Idle priority. Here's a link to the product. This product is marked as free for personal use, and there's no way to pay for it for business use (see Google for more people's comments - and suggestions on how to interpret this then.). It's made by the guys who make O&K Print Watch. http://www.prnwatch.com/prio.html Cheers Jono <Alfred.Koebler <at> de.noxs.com> writes: > > > Hallo, > > we use the cygwin-rsyncd. > > On some machines the users describe a "slow machine" > while the rsyncd process is running. > > On my machine with cygwin installed I added > "nice" to lower process priority of rsyncd successfully > by changing the following command from > cygrunsrv.exe -I rsyncd -e CYGWIN=nontsec -p c:/cygwin/bin/rsync_ backuppc.exe -a > "--config=c:/rsyncd/rsyncd.conf --daemon --no-detach" > to > cygrunsrv.exe -I rsyncd -e CYGWIN=nontsec -p c:/cygwin/bin/nice.exe -a "-n 20 > c:/cygwin/bin/rsync_backuppc.exe --config=c:/rsyncd/rsyncd.conf --daemon --no-detach" > > On machines without cygwin installed > - nice is not included in cygwin-rsyncd package. > - nice from cygwin distribution asks for a undefined symbol > - "CMD /C START /LOW c:\cygwin\bin\myservice.exe" - not a good solution > > Is it possible to add "nice" to cygwin-rsyncd package ? > > Another way might be to add '--nice' to cygrunsrv > - I know this is the wrong place to ask for that ? > > Greetings > > Alfred Koebler > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Using Tomcat but need to do more?
