This is the idea behind this project - easy to use automated process management too. * Why to use it? If you monitor the processes runing on your Windows box will probably notice that there are some of them using resourcies more aggresively. Use PsPriority to tame their behaviour. Having politics applied on your box forcing a process to start or increase resource consumtion is another reason to use PsPriority. Espessialy when applied on a time base.
