I had something of the opposite experience.

Digging into the manuals I figured out how to launch the compiler as a background process so I could still have a working system while waiting for it. Brought the whole classroom to a halt.

More digging revealed that the background priority was set well above user priority. AFIAK no malice involved, just someone who didn't know how to set the system up and left that landmine for me to find.
