Massively speed up light building and shader compiling! adjust UE4 affinity to LOW

To set the shader compiler priority to a default value for each compiler instance, we can access the BaseEngine.ini file located in Engine\Config directory. Open the file and search (ctrl + F) for “workerprocesspriority” and set the corresponding priority value to whatever suits your needs: -2 = Low, -1 = Below Normal, 0 = Normal, 1 = Above Normal, 2 = High.
