I'm happy for this to go ahead as I will want it on always by default,=20
however you pretty much kill the folk who prefer to 'nice' tasks to prevent=

interuption to other applications rather than using it to say "I do not car=

how long this task takes".

to
finish as soon as possible) but rather so that squid's performance is not
affected.
