Hi, Harri Suutari (2020-04-02): > set, but the nicelevel is not used by the tor process.
/etc/default/tor also reads: # Note that this file is not being used for controlling Tor-startup # when Tor is launched by systemd. So with systemd, I think you need to use LimitNICE= (systemd.exec(5) manpage) in a drop-in override, that you can generate for example with "systemctl edit". Cheers!
