So I use many xterms through dwm+xorg.

It happens, sometimes, that I run a computationally (and memory)
intensive program in a different xterm window from the cli, and xorg
eventually becomes completely unresponsive.

Is there a way to tell the Illumos kernel that it absolutely _can't_
just take xorg off the CPU from beneath my feet?

Because once that happens I have no way of killing the computationally
expensive process, and must hard-reboot.

This is the equivalent of a self-inflicted denial of service. What's
worse it can be done unwittingly (if, for example, I didn't write the
code).

Thanks.
