The priorities determine when a particular job is scheduled and have no 
relationship to the amount of bandwidth consumed by the jobs. The max 
bandwidth is same irrespective of whether the job's priority is HIGH, NORMAL 
or LOW. Note that the max bandwidth parameter doesn't apply to foreground 
jobs (jobs with FOREGROUND priority).
