Im sure Perl can nice a process but I guess I dont know what the correct term is. I guess if I just start with the correct term I can discover how to use it. Then again, I may just have to 'nice' it in the shell. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

There is nothing built in to Perl that will do this. You would have to either
call nice(2) through syscall() or call nice(1) or renice(8) through qx(),
system() or exec().
