RH442-151: ch07: Isn't is the other way around? The process with nice value of 5 gets more CPU time than the process with a nice value of 10? Since the lower the nice value the higher the priority.

      Workaround:

      Description: chapter 7 Tuning CPU utilization the last lines of text under** Dynamic Priority.**

      It states that a process with nice value of 10 will get more CPU time than a process with nice value of 5.

      Isn't is the other way around? The process with nice value of 5 gets more CPU time than the process with a nice value of 10? Since the lower the nice value the higher the priority.
