Not sure what processes we are talking about, maybe they are stopped and started with each request, so a manual "nice" would not really help you at all.
Maybe this can help you:

If you are starting a process, you can use nice(1).
If the process already exists, you can use renice(1).
renice -n your-new-priority PID
