oops. That's new for me.
I'm running the 'rc5client' on various machines (2.2.6-stable, 2.2.8-stable,
3.1-stable, 3.2-stable, 4.0-current) at the lowest idle priority.
I had definately no problems so far.

          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
          at least 3 of the machines are on 'heavy cpu-duty' and
          are very used to run 100% cpu processes.
          (e.g. batch graphic filtering, 3D-rendering, etc.)
