When I took a look at http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/threads/priority.html my conclusion was that you don't want to set thread to a lower priority in a server environment. My understanding is also that priority is handled differently on different JVM's/Os'se. I hope I was right since in the last year I have removed quite a lot to code that had to do with priority.
I quick grep show this [EMAIL PROTECTED] src]$ grep -r PRIO * | grep setP org/mmbase/util/FileWatcher.java: setPriority(MIN_PRIORITY); org/mmbase/module/core/MMBaseMultiCast.java: kicker.setPriority(Thread.MIN_PRIORITY); org/mmbase/module/core/MMBaseMultiCast.java: kicker.setPriority(Thread.NORM_PRIORITY+1); org/mmbase/module/core/MultiCastChangesSender.java: kicker.setPriority(Thread.MIN_PRIORITY); org/mmbase/module/core/MultiCastChangesReceiver.java: kicker.setPriority(Thread.MIN_PRIORITY); org/mmbase/module/core/MMBaseMultiCastProbe.java: kicker.setPriority(Thread.MIN_PRIORITY); org/mmbase/module/builders/EmailQueueProbe.java: kicker.setPriority(Thread.MIN_PRIORITY+1); org/mmbase/module/builders/vwms/VwmProbe.java: kicker.setPriority(Thread.MIN_PRIORITY+1); probably all the same code copied over and over again :)
