Hi,

I noticed that this service uses insane nice level -19
http://notendur.hi.is/~johannbg/systemd/etc/rc.d/init.d/mailgraph
8-|

PRIORITY=-19
[..]
    daemon nice $PRIORITY $exe -l $MAILLOG -d \
        --daemon-pid=/var/run/mailgraph.pid   \
        --daemon-rrd=/var/lib/mailgraph $OPTIONS

The same priority is used in the sample script. Does this service
_really_ needs such insane nice level?
