Let's continue this SUM thread for a bit - CPU priority in a multitasking
world has quite a bit of potential.
Does anyone know how to assign CPU priorities, probably using Taskman.exe,
in a script?
We've been trying to create bootup scripts that assign CPU priority for the
session, leaving open the possibility to manually change Taskman, or until
the machine gets rebooted. The value in this would be to lower the
priority of automatic virus checking, backup tasks, and ??? while the
machine is "cooking" some serious GIS number crunching overnight or weekend.
It seems to us a potentially powerful tool to gain the capability to assign
priorities with an "autoexec.bat" type script, orienting priorities in
various other servers (mail & web) as well.
Thanks,
Pat
