#34 Squeezelite process priority

[Greg Erskine]

I installed procps-ng.tcz to check the priority of the squeezelite-arm process. I was expecting it to be at the default value of 45 but it is only at 20, along with most other processes. Adjusting the priority through Squeezelite Settings appeared to have no effect.

Using the renice command I could bump the priority.

Further investigation is required and probably add some code to increase the Squeezelite's priority outside of Squeezelite settings.

Hi Greg.

I haven't checked myself, but Ralphy checked recently: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?97803-piCorePlayer-Squeezelite-on-Microcore-linux-An-embedded-OS-in-RAM-with-Squeezelit&p=826592&viewfull=1#post826592
Here it seems OK?

Works properly, using htop.tcz to monitor processes shows 4 processes with one at priority -46.

Thanks Steen
