Thanks for testing. The difference should only be noticable as X and other
interactive tasks remaining responsive under heavy load. Audio skips are far
less relevant any more.

No this is what I need to understand what went wrong. These hacks work on
changing the value of PRI basically. The wine/wineserver issue is an unusual
one as you've described it, and at O11 the test I put in to determine a task
is interactive by credits seems to select out the wrong one and keep that one
elevated.

Anyway most of this discussion is now moot as I've discussed with Ingo at
length a lot of the little things I've found that help and I suspect he will
develop his own, better solutions for them.
