I am not so familiar with the pri or rtprio columns as much as I am
the nice column, and I'm also new to this list. So, I hope I'm not
throwing in my 2 cents too early.
With nice, 20 is the lowest priority, 0 is the base, and -20 is the highest.
for me `ps auxl` shows both pri and ni, but not rtprio and I'm
definitely not the one to ask regarding pri and rtprio.
I should do some reading upon these, too.
