I agree with your suggestions saur and this this is a good request.  I had 
issues with this problem in 3.1.5 when many of my agent ran longer than the 
standard 5 minute interval and the increased CPU utilization was notable.  It 
would be nice to know that I could trust cfengine to be respectful to the rest 
of the system in the event of an loop or other odd bug.

Certainly not elegant or ideal, but could you use a shell script as the 
executor's exec_command?  That way you would have room to assign nice values to 
cf-agent and check for other processes before continuing.
