Hi,
Is there a reason why Deadline starts a process priority BelowNormal?
Typically we found setting priority higher than this could interfere with the OS level system processes.
For example (worst case) if you have a render thread above normal (or highest) priority and it locked up or entered some sort of deathloop of compute the OS/systems around your render may not get CPU cycles needed to perform normally.
I look upon this as more prioritising OS network calls etc above the render.
