Marian, Run strace for some time and try to compare output for different users. There will be too much work, but I think You will have exact answer. I guess there are different library paths for root and non-root user or smth like that. Also check where is the bottleneck with some monitoring tool, like nmon.
I'm not sure that the problem is with priority, it will be too easy :-) -- With best regards, Andrew ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
