Setting a thread priority in a service

I've created a Windows Service and I want it to always run at LOW priority. Is there any way to achieve this via code or how I package up the install?

Answer 1

Try modifying System.Diagnostics.Process.GetCurrentProcess().PriorityClass and/or System.Threading.CurrentThread.Priority.

Note that: "threads with different priorities that are running in the process run relative to the priority class of the process" (1). Also, changing the Priority property of a ThreadPool thread has no effect.
