Increase priority on process



Anyone know the easiest (safest) was to increase the priority of a
process as a non-root user? A few of my ideas:
1. root cron to check for the specific process and renice it.
2. Write a set-uid c wrapper to start up the process. (nice)

Security is not a big concern since it is a stand-alone box.

Any other ideas?
