It was possible in VS 6 and VS 2003.NET to edit the binary file
"vcspawn.exe" so that the process was launched with LOW_PRIORITY. This then
did the build in low priority (as seen in Windows Task Manager) and the rest
of the system was nice and responsive.

Is this possible in VS 2005? I note that during a build, there is only the
devenv.exe process running (no vcspawn.exe is launched) so it might be more
tricky.

Thanks,
Alain
