I was about to suggest that you could achieve this by overriding NICE in the configure command line, by e.g. configure NICE="/usr/bin/nice -n0" (I presume -n0 is a no-op), but it turned out that this did not work! :( I opened JDK-8213239 for this, but for the moment, that's not a usable workaround...

Oh! That feels much less intrusive than adding another option to the build system. I would chicken out and wait for JDK-8213239 to be fixed and then override NICE. There is no pressing need to have this workaround.

Thanks, -Aleksey
