I know of nice, but that just changes process priority, but still allows a process to use up to 100% of cpu.
trickle is a bandwidth shaper for network usage and is easy to use and works well. Is there an equivalent for CPU, so that I can "shape" the "cpu bandwidth" of an application? I want to be able to say "use maximum 10% of CPU". In the past, I wanted to do the same for memory and disk IO, to restrain firefox. My relatively modern pc with 8G RAM no longer motivates me in this way, but I would definitely like to throttle CPU.
