Managing Windows processes 2004-06-09 - By Sebastian Faber

You can simply use the DOS-command "start" to excecute xsibatch. With
"start" you can define the priority for xsibatch. The command in your
xsibatch.bat would be something like that:
start /low d:\Softimage\XSI_3.5.1\Application\bin\xsibatch.exe %1 %2 %3 %4
%5 %6 %7 %8 %9
you have different priorities like low, normal, high, realtime, abovenormal,
and belownormal
do you have windows running? - with linux is it very easy too.

Hello Bernard,
For our custom render manager, I use Python to execute a .bat file. With
pywin32 I take the process handle and I use it to set the priority
lower. And it works fine!
For that I used a python script given in the pywin32 demo directory
called winprocess.py.
If you need more info, don't hesitate!
Good luck!
