hog
     
        1. Favoured term to describe programs or hardware that seem to
        eat far more than their share of a system's resources,
        especially those which noticeably degrade interactive
        response.  *Not* used of programs that are simply extremely
        large or complex or that are merely painfully slow themselves
        (see {pig, run like a}).  More often than not encountered in
        qualified forms, e.g. "memory hog", "core hog", "hog the
        processor", "hog the disk".  "A controller that never gives up
        the I/O bus gets killed after the bus-hog timer expires."
     
        2. Also said of *people* who use more than their fair share of
        resources (particularly disk, where it seems that 10% of the
        people use 90% of the disk, no matter how big the disk is or
        how many people use it).  Of course, once disk hogs fill up
        one file system, they typically find some other new one to
        infect, claiming to the sysadmin that they have an important
        new project to complete.
