Ooh.. I thought a process group was a process and all its sub-processes.. It appears to be true in most cases at least.. The problem here is that most java apps spawns dozen of processes.. I do not want to renice them one by one... So the best idea is probably to run it with nice, so no need to renice.. # nice --5 someJavaApp nice: cannot set priority: Permission denied Seems I need to be root to run a program with higher priority, which is understandable... But in my case it is a complete nuisance.. So, as root I tried to run: # nice --5 su - cedric -c someJavaApp It did run the java app under my username, but with a nice level of 0, not -5 as expected.
