      Isn't "idprio" the best way of scheduling a process to run when the
    system is otherwise idle? Can you try with idprio?

      From what I know of "nice", it should reduces the processes scheduling
    priority. There is no definition in the nice manpage on the exact
    definition of reduced priority means.
