-The UHD will try to automatically boost the process's scheduling priority.
-Currently, this is only supported on platforms with *sched.h*.
-
+When the UHD spawns a new thread it may try to boost the thread's scheduling priority.
When setting the priority fails, the UHD prints out an error.
-This error is harmless, it simply means that your process will have a normal scheduling priority.
