Priority of farming vs plotting threads

Are farming and plotting threads currently equally prioritized? I asked this question on discord but Jim didn’t know the answer and suggested to ask here.

When the CPU is fully loaded by the plotters, I occasionally see missing block rewards due to slow processing. It would probably make sense to prioritize farming threads over plotting threads if that is not already the case.

They kind of are, this is why there is a separate configuration option for replotting threads that is smaller than plotting threads to not impact farming as much.

It is expected that you might miss some rewards during initial plotting, when the goal is to plot as much as possible as fast as possible.
