There are some commands that mess with the scheduling
priority, but this (AFAIK) only deals with CPU activity.
It sounds like the problem you're having is related to
I/O bandwidth.  That said, here are some man pages:

 % man nice
 ...
 nice -- execute a utility with an altered scheduling priority
 ...

 % man renice
 ...
 renice -- alter priority of running processes
 ...

-r
