-This readme refers to the file thr-mach.c.
-
-Under mach, thread priorities are kinda strange-- any given thread has
-a MAXIMUM priority and a BASE priority.  The BASE priority is the
-current priority of the thread and the MAXIMUM is the maximum possible
-priority the thread can assume.  The developer can lower, but never
-raise the maximum priority.
-
-The gcc concept of thread priorities is that they run at one of three
-levels;  interactive, background, and low.
-
-Under mach, this is translated to:
-
-interactive -- set priority to maximum
-background  -- set priority to 2/3 of maximum
-low         -- set priority to 1/3 of maximum
-
-This means that it is possible for a thread with the priority of
-interactive to actually run at a lower priority than another thread
-with a background, or even low, priority if the developer has modified
-the maximum priority.
