I have a BAAN V under the AIX 5.3L (IBM p550). How do I find out what is the default priority (process) of BAAN application run under the system? I also have an Oracle 10g R2 on the same box and its priority is 60. Should the priority of BAAN run higher or lower than Oracle for good performance?

I found the priority with ps -ef | grep "root "
root 585770 1 0 60 20 4845400 844 Feb 04 - 0:00 /baan/bse/bin/blogind6.2
root 618604 1 0 60 20 445b5400 788 f1000c00221bad30 Feb 04 - 1:14 /baan/bse/bin/shmtimer6.2 –i
root 823514 372960 0 60 20 6cfde400 1356 Feb 19 - 0:00 rpc.ttdbserver 100083 1
root 1540170 1 0 60 20 3ba8b400 920 Mar 27 - 0:01 licd6.2
Which is the 60 in the value of fifth column. Then I am wondering what is a proper value for performance?

It's a while ago I did use Baan on AIX but the advice used to be: don't mess with the priority. AIX can handle it very well.

Guess this will still be valid.
