there might be three reasons: 1) less power consumed (notebooks, PDA's) 2) less heat from CPU 3) (cross platform) scheduling of low priority tasks (e.g. all my background tasks are already running with lowest priority since I do not want them to influence my desktop in any way, but still I want some of them to be of higher priority) generally, modern OS'es do not provide any ways to schedule tasks with such constrains, which makes the question perfectly legitimate -- ----------------------------------------------------------- | Radovan Garabík http://kassiopeia.juls.savba.sk/~garabik/ | | __..--^^^--..__ garabik @ kassiopeia.juls.savba.sk | ----------------------------------------------------------- Antivirus alert: file .signature infected by signature virus.
