Here's something I used for awhile a couple years ago (but don't use anymore
but forget my reasons after all this time):

If using Process Lasso, also set the 'Forced mode' option. These processes may be changing their own priority. Process Lasso correctly doesn't try to fight with such processes, so you must turn this option on. This is probably why Prio and SetPriority didn't work.
