That is why PerfOS would have resources reserved for OS itself and it's
utilities, and the rest would be given to the USER to control via a utility
interface however thon chooses to, could be automated between certain
parameters.

You should choose what program gets how much of anything, in my opinion.
Perhaps you have a utility that is ON 24/7, but want it to consume say 20% of
CPU/RAM/DISC/etc. when you at the same time say do something like render a

video. Then when that video is over - it would automatically go to 100% unless
specified otherwise, and when some process appears again, then it would go
again to a previously specified value (which was 20% in this example), unless
specified otherwise.

This is all, granted, me not understanding how CPU and other resource's
scheduling works in general, and/or in OpenBSD, but this to me seems to be the
most sane thing.
Is manual resource dividing even possible in OS-s, and another question - is it
possible in OpenBSD, and with how much effort?

If I do get well again, PerfOS will have this, and it will attractive AF, so
actually please do NOT do this.

Is it just me, or are all OS-s very primitive?
Do we still live in caves? Hello?
