 Thanks for the reply.

 True enough.  TamTam folk: how much do you care about having this done for
 Trial-1?

 simply run as root, without being reniced to a higher priority at all.
 This would be very surprising, since I don't believe the kernel contains
 any implicit bias for uid 0 processes, and they start at the normal system
