Hi,

I have a script that I want to run in the background. I'm wondering whether it is possible to limit the memory and or processor capacity that it uses so that the users can continue their normal work while it runs.

could you give me a direction to look for?

Thank you,
chris
 
One way to do this is to lower the priority of the script process. You can see how to do this here...
