Scheduling

Reviewed July 2020

The Scheduling menu brings up a small dialog that allows you to tinker with the way A-Shell shares the CPU with other applications on your PC. The default foreground and background priority is "13", which is measure of how long A-Shell will "hog" the CPU before intentionally yielding to another application. In general this is only of historic interest and can be safely ignored, since modern Windows scheduling and multi-core CPUs will assert their own control over how CPU resources are shared between processes.
