This is often heard but not really true. It's the processes' scheduling 
priorities (among other factors) that count. In general there's nothing 
wrong with a process using all CPU time if no other process needs it at 
the moment. It only gets problematic if this process prevents other, 
"more important" processes from getting cycles when they need them. But 
this can have several other reasons.
