Description: VeryNice is a tool for dynamically adjusting the nice-level of processes under UNIX-like operating systems. It can also be used to kill off runaway processes and increase the priority of multimedia applications, while properly handling both batch computation jobs and interactive applications with long periods of high CPU usage.

### verynice.conf -- sample configuration file
###
### Declare root immune (root owned processes will never be adjusted)
immuneuser adm
immuneuser bin
immuneuser bind
immuneuser daemon
immuneuser ldap
immuneuser root
immuneuser xfs

### Declare immune program, matlab in this case. If the line is uncommented,
### any program with "matlab" in it's path will be immune to renicing.
### The quoted quantity must match a substring of the symbolic link in
### /proc/{pid}/exe
### if there is a leading slash, the match must be precise
#immuneexe "matlab"

### Declare "bad" program -- automatically niced to batch job level
#badexe "mathematica"

### Declare "hungry" program -- always assumed to have 100% cpu usage,
###                             regardless of actual usage. For programs
###                             which tend to have lots of little subprocesses
###                             with short lifetimes to do their dirty work
###                             (such as "make")
### (we use leading slashes and various possible paths so that we will never
###  accidentally give this flag to another program)
### Note that it IS possible to set both the "hungry" and "runaway" flags
### simultaneously (process will always be killed after a certain amount of time)
hungryexe "/usr/bin/make"
hungryexe "/usr/bin/gmake"

### Declare "good" program -- automatically negatively reniced to
### multimedia job level. goodexe "xmms" reduces the chances of skipping when
### playing mp3's
goodexe "cdrecord"
goodexe "gcombust"
goodexe "gmplayer"
goodexe "mplayer"
goodexe "ogle"
goodexe "realplay"
goodexe "rvplayer"
goodexe "vlc"
goodexe "xanim"
goodexe "xcdroast"
goodexe "xine"
goodexe "xmms"

### Making the X server a "good" program is usually a good idea too
###   -- X is essentially a multimedia app. These next few lines will
###   work even if root is declared an "immune" user and X is run as root,
###   because "goodexe"'s specified in verynice.conf are exceptions to
###   the "immuneuser" rule
goodexe "/etc/X11/X"
goodexe "/usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_"
goodexe "/usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86"
goodexe "/usr/X11R6/bin/X"

### Declare "potential runaway" program. They can go to a lower priority
### (reniced all the way to +20), and if they exceed that they will be
### killed. Other processes are never killed. This is good for netscape and
### any other programs with a tendency to start eating the CPU for no reason.
runawayexe "Fvwm"
runawayexe "galeon"
runawayexe "gimp"
runawayexe "mozilla"
runawayexe "netscape"
runawayexe "phoenix"
runawayexe "opera-motif-wrapper"
runawayexe "xfig"

#notnice    -4
#batchjob   18
