Task Manager question

[jra64]

In windows task manager under the processes tab if you right click on on of the items it gives you the option to set priority. If I set certain processes higher will they run faster?

From task manager's help file:

Changing the priority of a process can make it run faster or slower (depending on whether you raise or lower the priority), but it can also adversely affect the performance of other processes.
