    Hi all,

    like I reported some weeks ago, SCHED_ULE seems to ignore nice.
    Since it's now the default I gave it another try and did the following simple
    test:

    SCHED_ULE:
    seti in background (doesn't matter if nice=20 or 15)
    /usr/ports/sysutils/cpdup
    make install takes Minutes

    Without seti it takes some seconds

    SCHED_4BSD:
    seti in background (doesn't matter if nice=20 or 15)
    /usr/ports/sysutils/cpdup
    make install finishes in seconds. No difference with or without seti

    Please let us know when nice gets respected by SCHED_ULE so I can really use
    it as default scheduler.

    Thanks,

    -Harry
