WMPRO, WMMINI FW >= 1.0 WMMEGA FW >= 2.0

Set the priority of the current script

This function can be used to run a script with a higher priority if required. If priority > 0, it will wait till all other scripts are finished before continuing, so that the maximum amount of memory is available to the script.

This will also set max_concurrent_scripts to 1 to prevent other scripts from starting while this is set, so make sure to unset the priority by passing a 0 value once you have done your critical processing.

$priority:

• = 0 - Normal default priority
• > 0 - Elevated priority

None

<?
  // some code
  setpriority(1); 
  // this will now run exclusively ...
  setpriority(0); // back to default priority
?>

max_concurrent_scripts - Operating System configuration, uphp.ini: Limit the number of scripts that can run at the same time

max_execution_time() - Set the maximum execution time for the current script

process_list() - Return an array of the currently running scripts
