When set to '1', the processes that are run with a 'nice' value will not count (and thus be ignored) in the -overal usage calculation. This is useful if you are running a CPU +overall usage calculation. This is useful if you are running a CPU intensive calculation on your laptop that you do not care how long it takes to complete as you can 'nice' it and prevent it from taking part in the deciding process of whether to increase your CPU frequency. |
