I have `niced' the daemon and --cores=1 but the niceness does not get translated to builds.
I gutless desktop is unusable during the long builds. Please, please make it be nice.

scratch that.
When I executed `guix pull' the processes were not niced, but once the builds started, the nice did seem to be there.
