it's only low priority if there is fight over cpu time ;-)
because ryzom uses 99% of cpu time doing nothing, it might as well do it at background priority and leave cpu for apps that really need it (like second ryzom on same core ;-)
.. also early wine had somewhat basic sound drivers, and without 'nice -n 19', ryzom took all cpu and left too little for wine sound thread. wine sound drivers are quite a lot better now, so i think 'nice -n 19' is not exactly needed for that purpose anymore. i still use it, even tho i have quad core cpu now.
