-If set and portage is run under Linux with autogroup scheduling (see
-\fBsched\fR(7)) enabled, then portage will set the nice value of its
-autogroup to PORTAGE_NICENESS. Upon exiting, portage will restore the
-original value. Note that if the function responsible for restoring the
-original value is not run, e.g., because portage's process was killed,
-then the autogroup will stay niced. In such a case, the value can be
-reset via corresponding autogroup pseudo\-file in /proc.
