A ThreadFactory that sets nice values for each thread. The main use case for this class is if there are multiple CPUThreadPoolExecutors in a single process, or between multiple processes, where some should have a higher priority than the others.
Declared in <folly/executors/thread_factory/PriorityThreadFactory.h>
class PriorityThreadFactory
: public InitThreadFactory
Note that per-thread nice values are not POSIX standard, but both pthreads and linux support per-thread nice. The default linux scheduler uses these values to do smart thread prioritization. sched_priority function calls only affect real-time schedulers.
