I frequently work with data acquisition. I have an app running that reads data in from the USB and on some slower cumputers, the buffer will overflow. I was wondering if anyone has any feel for how setting the priority to above normal will affect the system responsiveness. It doesn't have to respond quickly as if nothing else is running, but the user should still be able to use it. That is, they should still be able to click the buttons that start and stop acquisition. I can try it, but it will be at least 2 weeks before I can. I don't want to set it so high that it crashes the computer either. Anyone have a feel for this?
Thanks.
