Has anyone had any experience setting the Priority on a Process in the TM?

The selections are
[tt]
Realtime
High
AboveNormal
Normal
BelowNormal
Low
[/tt]
I get a Warning message that changing the priority class of the process MAY cause undesired results, including system instability.

Its default setting is normal, and it would depend on what other processes/applications are running on your system. Prioritising excel may see a reduced performance in for example internet browsing, outlook usage.

I say....be brave, save everything, backup your system and change the priority.
