I know.

I was wondering, since we are working on an actual bug here, whether or
not renicing X is leading to a starvation issue between X and whatever
is starving. I have seen it before.

My system is responsive, too, and I do not renice X. But it might
help. Or it might cause starvation issues. We have a bug somewhere...
