240
241Sets the priority of the process. Higher priority processes get run before
242lower priority processes. Priorities are smalled signed integer (currently
243-4 .. +3), that you can refer to using PRIO_xxx constants (use the import
244tag :prio to get then):
245
246 PRIO_MAX > PRIO_HIGH > PRIO_NORMAL > PRIO_LOW > PRIO_IDLE > PRIO_MIN
247 3 > 1 > 0 > -1 > -3 > -4
248
249 # set priority to HIGH
250 current->prio(PRIO_HIGH);
251
252The idle coroutine ($Coro::idle) always has a lower priority than any
253existing coroutine.
254
255Changing the priority of the current process will take effect immediately,
256but changing the priority of processes in the ready queue (but not
257running) will only take effect after the next schedule (of that
258process). This is a bug that will be fixed in some future version.

268=item $newprio = $process->nice($change)
269
270Similar to C<prio>, but subtract the given value from the priority (i.e.
271higher values mean lower priority, just as in unix).

245 286
246 - could be faster, especially when the core would introduce special 287 - you must make very sure that no coro is still active on global destruction.
247 support for coroutines (like it does for threads). 288 very bad things might happen otherwise (usually segfaults).
248 - there is still a memleak on coroutine termination that I could not
249 identify. Could be as small as a single SV.
250 - this module is not well-tested.
251 - if variables or arguments "disappear" (become undef) or become
252 corrupted please contact the author so he cen iron out the
253 remaining bugs.
254 - this module is not thread-safe. You must only ever use this module from 289 - this module is not thread-safe. You must only ever use this module from
255 the same thread (this requirement might be loosened in the future to 290 the same thread (this requirement might be loosened in the future to
256 allow per-thread schedulers, but Coro::State does not yet allow this). 291 allow per-thread schedulers, but Coro::State does not yet allow this).
