| Low | -10 | Low priority work will be scheduled when there isn't any other work to process. Work at Low priority can be preempted by new incoming High and Normal priority tasks. |
| Normal | 0 | Work will be dispatched once all High priority tasks are dispatched. If a new High priority work is scheduled, all new High priority tasks are processed before resuming Normal tasks. This is the default priority. |
| High | 10 | Work scheduled at High priority will be dispatched first, along with other High priority System tasks, before processing Normal or Low priority work. |
