Is there any way to guarantee that the non-default queue is of the
highest priority, or in other words default queue is of lowest priority.
I know you set queue 1 as default because by default 0 is higher
priority. And then assigning non-default queue.

When assigning default to Queue 1, it would be good to also call
assign_priority_to_queue and set QUEPRI to 7 for Queue 1. Since 0, 2 and
4 are all non-defaults.

Thanks,
-Joel
