How to bzip a file with minimum cpu percentage? @dddddd - Well then don't worry about it. If you run the bzip command with nice 19, then it'll get far less priority in the kernel's scheduler than other processes do. You still need to worry about things like IO contention, though, as compression/decompression are are also fairly IO intensive. |

How to bzip a file with minimum cpu percentage? Thanks @TomMarthenal. In my midnight stupor, I wouldn't have been able to come up with as concise an explanation as that. Methinks it's time to go to bed. :) |

How to bzip a file with minimum cpu percentage? Well is there anything else happening on the system? You didn't answer my question - why do you want to do this? All the nice command does is change the priority, so if there are no other CPU-intensive tasks happening on the server then yes, bzip2 will gladly take all of your CPU, and there's really nothing you can or should do about that. |

Console utility to know how disk space is distributed? OK, this is confusing. Your screenshot is from windows, but the question is tagged with "linux". What are you looking for? |

What should a Linux Server Admin know about Solaris and AIX Why do you prefer it to stay here? IMHO it'll be much more well-answered over on unix.se. |
