------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-30 22:09 ------- 0 nice value reappeared and I don't know why. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: RESOLVED creation_date: description: I saw that X had a 0 nice value. It previously had -10 nice value (9.0 release). Having a 0 nice value gived me some problems when I created a software with a high framerate (24 frames/s). My X server could not follow this rate for the given window size and it become overloaded because it used the most part of its time in managing memory. The more it became late, the more it had to manage memory (not displayed frames) and the more it became slow. It bringed my computer to crash. I agree that my software should adapt its framerate (what I did later), but the problem is that an non root user crashed the system (i.e. a developper testing a new software) ! Think at the other users which used the node I crashed ! Simply changing the nice value to -1 fixed the problem. Previous (r 9.0) -10 nice value was good. I think that all what handles user interface have to be more near from real time. In case X server is not used, it will not consume CPU time. For application server use, simply shutdown X or manually increase X nice value.
