Subject: [gentoo-user] PORTAGE_NICENESS for real

1 Is there a way to make the emerge command only use system resources
2 that are not requested by anything else? Whenever I 'emerge sync' or
3 emerge a package my system slows way down and the sound sometimes
4 stutters badly. I'd rather have the emerge process just move really
5 slowly if necessary. I'm using PORTAGE_NICENESS="19" in
6 /etc/make.conf and it helps but not enough.
