<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;">The <span style=" font-weight:600;">Real Time</span> scheduling class is given first access to the disk, regardless of what else is going on in the system. Thus the <span style=" font-weight:600;">Real Time</span> class needs to be used with some care, as it can starve other processes. As with the <span style=" font-weight:600;">Best Effort</span> class, 8 priority levels are defined denoting how big a time slice a given process will receive on each scheduling window.</p></body></html>
