Ok, I've just read the actual code for NtSetInformationProcess (probably should
have done that first)
It's right, what threw me was your r41390 commit which contained this :
+ PriorityClass.PriorityClass = PROCESS_PRIORITY_CLASS_HIGH;
+ PriorityClass.Foreground = FALSE;
+
+ /* Set priority for process */
+ if (!NT_SUCCESS(NtSetInformationProcess(ProcessInfo.ProcessHandle,
+ ProcessPriorityClass,
+ &PriorityClass,
+ sizeof(PROCESS_PRIORITY_CLASS))))
+ {
+ DPRINT1("Unable to set process priority for winlogon.exe\n");
+ }
I assumed from reading this that our NtSetInformationProcess was setting
process priorities via #defines.
It turns out that the above is actually wrong. From pstypes.h :
#define PROCESS_PRIORITY_CLASS_HIGH 3
You were setting winlogon to have a priority of 3. Clearly not right ... heh.
Anyway, I see you've reverted it now. Problem solved.
I was just writing this follow up so you didn't start looking into
NtSetInformationProcess and scratching your head wondering what my previous
mail was about

with above normal priority class
Hi
This change is wrong. ABOVE_NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS sets them to a process level
of 10 which is too high.
Windows actually runs these at a level of 9 to ensure they get proc time before
the regular NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS(8) processes but below the
ABOVE_NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS(10) processes.
IIRC, you should be able to set the process directly using
NtSetInformationProcess although our implementation doesn't seem to reflect
this.
Is it our implementation or my memory which is wrong ?
Ged.
