## What is this?

This project is a rust rewrite of [rtkit][rtkit], which is a daemon that allows
non-privileged processes to request to be switched to [real-time scheduling][real-time-scheduling] over [D-Bus][dbus]

The daemon keeps track of the processes that have been granted real-time scheduling, and will automatically
revoke these grants if the system is under heavy load.
