[Perlfect-search] Re: Processor usage

[Cameron Moore]

On Aug 24, 2001, Mike Achenbach posted a message[1] saying that the
indexer was hogging his CPU.  I simple fix is to add this to the top of
your indexer.pl script:

  use POSIX qw(nice);
  nice 20;

That will renice the process to be less of a hog on a Linux box.  Other
unices may have a different nice scale, and Win32 may not even support
it, so check your system for more details.  Thanks
