I need to pre-seed a huge amount of tiles (altogether about 6 TB) and I would like to run this task in the background with a low priority (nice) so that the delivery of on-the-fly requested tiles does not get slowed down. Is this possible? Under geoserver/gwc/rest/seed/ I do not see an option for this.
I think you cannot. What about a separate geowebcache instance that tiles
while your geoserver serves up the tiles. Then you can do these things on a
process level.
Cheers
