It shows in the task manager as thread prioriy normal. Just curious if it
changes it's priority dynamically or if task manager does not bother to
display that finer grained priority level .
I can see where you would not want to impact compile but when you are not
compiling the OS should speed up and use the I/O capacity that it has to
get the work done. I certainly do not see that. I/O utilization stays low
and the cache is slow. (Maybe I need a more mature OS)
(it has 50% to do with CPU ;-) I am saying my machine has CPU to spare,
memory to spare, and I/O speed to spare and it still is slow)
