In general I’d ask people who run longer-term jobs to nice(1)

do quick-shot interactive testing of things don’t get delayed
too much. In my experience, though, resource usage hasn’t been
high enough to seriously hamper testing yet so I guess people
already do that anyway (thank you).
It takes a *lot* of nudging to get people to behave even a little bit
social, though.
Well, for the example of running large jobs with nice(1), perhaps adding
that to the GCC wiki page "Usage" section might be a good first step?
It currently mentions ulimit, disk space, not having automated jobs use
more than half of the CPUs, and coordinating cron jobs if you find that
someone else is running one at the same time, but not using nice(1).
