Subject: Making X more responsive with nice
Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2003 18:45:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030826164529.GA23517@neon> (raw)

Hi,

I just though of making X more responsive by giving it a higher priority at
startup. A fast graphical interface is more important to me than the speed
of the applications in use. Sometimes when the system is under heavy load,
swiching to X as well as redrawing certain areas of the screen when windows
are moved has a long lag.
One could now use the nice program to give it higher priority.
Before trying I would like to know what you think of this and whether it
makes sense at all.

Thank you,
Axel Siebenwirth
