How to limit an IO bound process?



Hi,

I have a long-term running disk IO bound program
running in the background on my desktop. I want to
limit its resource consumption so that other desktop
programs get running smoothly.

I know that `nice` can be used for CPU bound
programs. What about disk IO bound ones? Is there
something similar for them?

Thank you.
