You can alter the "priority" of PShop from the task
manager OR you can change it's default priority in the registry (I
don't recommend the latter unless you intend to lower it's priority).. 

To change it while PShop is already running..

Simply open the taskmanager by invoking "taskman" from the "run"
dialog, or.. by using CTRL-ALT-DEL

Go to the "processes" tab...

When you find Photoshp.exe, right-click on it and choose the "set
priority..." option..

Choose a priority- you can alter this as needed if you decide to load
/ unload other processes/programs that may need more resources.. As an
example, you might lower it while PShop runs batch actions and you do
other work, then raise it back up when you are doing image editing..

Unless you are running two or more CPUs I strongly recommend avoiding
"realtime"..

Yes, you can change the priority while PShop is running (if you find
you want more or less cpu cycles devoted to it)..

If you have more than one CPU, you can consider setting a CPU affinity
as well, but since some filters actually multi-thread,  you would
likely be losing performance by doing so..
