Unix does provide the command nice [increment] command to lower a priority of a process.
As system administrator you can use the renice command to change the priority of a process, all processes of a user, or all processes belong to a group of users. The renice command has the form

/etc/renice priority [ [ -p ] pid ... ] [ [ -g ] pgrp ... ] [ [ -u ] user
