Bug#925378: apt-daily service slows down the machine, should use higher niceness
Package: apt
Version: 1.8.0~rc2
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
My machine (Raspberry Pi 3) is significantly slowed down when the apt-daily
service runs. As this is a batch service, in my opinion it should be started
with a higher niceness so that it has less adverse effects on performance of
more relevant tasks.
Would it be a good idea to set up the service so as to have a higher niceness?
Many thanks!
