32 It's OK with me. I can add those lines into Gentoo init scripts as well as I
33 can use nice and renice for my procs. What I want is to have this feature in
34 Gentoo init scripts subsystem, not my own hack, and to have a support for
35 this on a Gentoo Linux level. It's kinda a feature request.
