I need some advice on how to give the kernel more CPU time in a saturated 
system. I am running a SVR3.2 system on a i386 platform

My problem is this:  Some times the system idle time is 0% I need better 
Performance from the  terminal I/O subsystem . Is it possible to give the 
kernel a higher priority than the applications ? If I start the main
applikations with the nice command will this give the kernel a better chance
to do its job ?
