I vaguely recall that nice affects how much CPU time a process gets, which makes me think option E is correct, but I could be wrong.

I feel like I might confuse nice with another command that changes user permissions. Wasn't there something similar in our practice tests?

I remember practicing a question about process management, and I think nice is used to adjust the priority of a command. So, I would lean towards E.

I think the nice command is related to process priority, but I'm not entirely sure if it's about running commands with higher or lower priority.
